"We were with Moremi who briefed us about his meeting with the police on Friday, but also indicated that the police said they will be coming to meet us at the offices in Ga-Kgapane," said a senior member who wished to remain anonymous for fear of his life.
"As we were waiting, Moremi received a call that the police have cancelled the [appointment] of the [scheduled] meeting but he told us that they [police] would not sleep without meeting us, and we dispersed. But also, there was a suspicious silver grey VW Polo and a brown Chevrolet bakkie which were spotted following our members."
He confirmed that the association was in a financial crisis and that all its four minibuses were in a combined repayment arrears of R500,000. "We have two 22-seater VW Crafter and other two Quantum minibuses which were bought for the association and at least R16,000 every week was generated from them. Also, 54 members of the association were contributing R2,000 each and every week but the money is nowhere to be seen."Another member who also asked not to be identified told Sowetan that they have been pleading with the police to make arrests since their members were being attacked and killed since 2015.
"We are not safe at all because there is one of our member who is hiring hitmen to finish us all. We now believe that there is a hit-list targeting our members and we urge police to protect us," he said.

So you are publishing his picture so he can be killed. Where's the protection for whistle blowers
If no time he will be dead
He caused his own death knowingly
Le dia yini le khe fhejana balobedu besu? 😭😭😭
Our Taxi Industry has Mafias of same scale like your Los Zetas brutal drug gang of Mexico. There is no ifs and buts once a number is out for you. Don't rule out corrupt police who have taxis as well. May his soul rest in Peace
I wish he had done that anonymously,some police today are very dodgy,Carte Blanche has aired a very disturbing story on Rolex gang and police are not doing a good job at all
He is combatting corruption that guy let’s hope that they can’t kill him those mafias
He thought he was powerful, in this world if you want to save your life and let your kids enjoy having both parents growing up...keep quiet and act like you didn't see anything. Otherwise you will die young and we will bury you.
He was supposed to have a Dead Man's Switch in place
pleshido_sp I guess betrayal didn't go as planned this time
What was he thinking? Police are part of this nonsense
People are cruel and hell is waiting for them
Nkanyiso_ngqulu I hope the family is preparing his burial and conditioning their hearts for the loss. Taxi industry is ruthless.

Government caves in to allow taxis to carry full loads despite Covid-19 threatThe government has bowed to pressure from the taxi industry to avoid a possible strike by allowing taxis to carry full loads during the national lockdown Fucking weak Its very disturbing that our govt gives in to the industry that gets so much income yet contributes nothing financially to the economy. If they were being taxed then I would understand but this is very wrong to in. Now taxi drivers will buy masks and then request you to give it Are you kidding me ! !!!! I’m not allowed to walk on my own on the beach but I can get into a taxi with 17 other people … WTF !
