I'm a minister and I've got to explain. I'm responsible for Prasa."

He was celebrating purchase of 100s of German high performance cars in December. He is going to apologise for trains without brake pads when ppl are dying on the rail tracks.

Once competent employees are put in place this would/should not happen. One wonders about the Minister tho..Something that should have been got ride of sometime ago. Can ANC do thatCan the New Dawn get rid of this Rubbish Must we wait on ZONDO/courts? Yes let us wait.😃 WAIT.

ANC MP's don't care about you. Wake up ! Just use your own eyes and logic. It wasn't a mistake. It's normal incompetence and just plain old not caring about normal people.

MbalulaFikile your apologies are as empty as your head

Empty apology. MYANC MbalulaFikile are just useless really. Pretoria to Johannesburg there's no trains for 6 weeks now and most people lost jobs because they can't afford taxi. Shame on this politicians. What they know is red carpet at SONA2020

No passenger trains in Western Cape as Eskom cuts power over unpaid bills“The regional train service is temporarily suspended due to loss of traction power supply.” If any Public Entity is not Paying let it suffer like the Rest of us with a Private Entity this wouldn't happen because Shareholders would be Loosing Money Companies have a Better consequence management So one state owned enterprise didnt have money to pay money owing to another state owned enterprise. 🤔 I smell ANC meddling. Fikile man, you cant just throw your hands in the air and pretend this has nothing to do with you and your criminal comrades busy destabilising the Cape. Cut all municipalities, businesses, SOE’s, time Eskom treats all its clients as equals! They cut my electrical supply quickly for noncompliance. MbalulaFikile Eskom_SA
