Mbalula blames theft for dilapidated train stations, as ActionSA calls for heightened security measuresMbalula said train stations requiring minor and extensive repairs will be upgraded as part of the National Station Improvement Programme. What happened to the security staff that used to look after the stations? He’s lying. They took them away. This is how they privatize the rail system by making it dysfunctional so their ‘private’ friends can take it over. Thank you Captain Obvious🤦‍♂️ like we don't know it's due to theft you suppose to prevent this. Isn't that why the apartheid government had railway police, you anc got rid of them
