“Njengoba sisebenzisana neTransnet nezinye izinhlaka zikahulumeni, sizokwazi ukunyusa izinga lezokuThutha eNingizimu Afrika. Zizojika izinto echwebeni ngoba namaguzu ayabuya.
Sizokwenza isiqiniseko ukuthi izinhlelo zokuthuthwa kwempahla zivikela imisebenzi, zihehe nabatshalizimali. Sifuna izinyunyana zingasabi ukuthi uma uhulumeni esebenzisana nosomabhizinisi kungase kuphele imisebenzi.
