The Alliance for Transformation for All , a political party formed mainly by taxi operators last year to contest the national elections with the view to transform the taxi industry, says “the people must govern now”.
The street is lined with taxis and, despite being the second-busiest street in the town, it is used as a rank and ordinary cars have to deal with the delays if they use it. “I love this organisation because they are here at the rank with us where I work. I have no choice but to vote for them. They need my support because the issues that they are raising affect us as hawkers and taxi operators directly,” Dlamini said.
“It looks like we are competing with the government because they are not giving us subsidy in the taxi industry while giving buses, for instance, subsidies, such as the AB 350 buses which are subsidised by the government with R48 000 a month on the same route and the same commuters. “It’s as if we do not exist. That is why we formed ATA so that we can deal with our interests ourselves,” he said.
