Udlame lwamatekisi aseMnambithi lososeshini ababili bamabanga amade olwaqala kuyimpi yabantu abazalanayo, seluxoveke kwaze kwafaka phakathi namaphoyisa njengoba kunohlangothi olusola abengalo yomthetho ukuthi babukeka besebenza nohlagothi oluthile ukufeza izinhloso zalo.

“Sesifuna uCele noNtuli basitshele ukuthi ngabe ngempela la maphoyisa abawajube lapha azosebenza ukubopha thina yini? Asisazi manje ngoba noma siziphindiselela kulabo abasibulalayo siyaboshwa. Abafana bakithi abanye balandelwa ngisho esibhedlela bephuke imilenze ngenxa yokudutshulwa kodwa bafike baboshwe. Abantu besifazane abaningi bemindeni yethu baningi asebebulewe kulolu dlame. Amaphoyisa asesibophela ngisho amacala ezibhamu ezasebenza kudala kuseyimpi yomndeni noma yezibongo kungakabi ngisho ekasoseshini. Asisazi noma kumele sithuthe lapha eMnambithi sishiye umhlaba wobaba ngoba phela siyahlaselwa kodwa kugcina kuboshwa thina. Ejele eWestville kugcwele izinsizwa zakwethu kwaMabaso okuyizo nje eziboshwayo kulolu dlame lososeshini bobabili. Thina bakwaMabaso sivikela ifa lo baba bethu okungamatekisi lawa akuSizwe Taxi Owners Assosiation. Sikwenza lokho ngoba asibona abafazi ngakho ngeke sihlale sigoqe izandla sihlaselwa, yikho sithi sesicela uNdosi noMphemba basitshele ukuthi ngabe bafuna sishiye umhlaba wethu lapha eMnambithi siye kwenye indawo siyokwakha khona ngoba sithwele kanzima lapha siyahlaselwa siphinde siboshwe,” kukhala lo mholi ocele ukungadalulwa ngoba esaba ukuthi uzophinde alandelwe.
Lolu dlame kuthiwa luqale ngowezi-2001 ngesikhathi abomndeni wakwaMabaso besolwa ngokubulala isihlobo sasekhaya kogogo wabo kwaMthembu.
Udaba kuthiwa luhambe lwaze lwangenelwa abakwamakhelwane okungabakwaGamede.
Yilapho lunyuke lwaze lwagcina seluphenduka olwamatekisi ngesikhathi lezi zibongo sezingenisa embonini yamatekisi nokungezwani kwazo kwaqhubeka kwaya phambili.
Kumanje abakwaGamede bangaphansi kukaKlipriver kanti basolwa ngokuthi kwathi kusaliwa bona bathatha umzila wakwaMabaso abakuSizwe Taxi Association.
Lolu dlame luqinise emizileni yamabanga amade esuka eMnambithi.

Kujutshwe namathimba aphezulu amaphoyisa ukubhekana nalesi simo esiphendule uMnambithi isizinda sokugobhoza kwegazi ngenxa yenganono ebisha ubusuku nemini kungalindelwe.
Ngowezi-2017 kubhubhe inqwaba yabantu abanye abebesuke bebulawa ngephutha njengoba kukhona lapho okwabulawa amalungu omndeni owodwa ayesuka eGoli ezoshadisa .
Akugcinanga lapho kodwa kunesinye isigameko lapho okwashona kwalimala othisha ababeya esikoleni ekuseni abadutshulwa ngentululwane yezinhlamvu besetekisini ekubo labo soseshini abalwayo.
Ezinye izikhulu zalabo soseshini bezibulawa zisendleleni nemindeni yazo .
Kukhona ezinye ezigcine sezinquma ukuba zingabe zisahamba nezihlobo zazo kodwa zihambe nabaqaphi kuphela ngenxa yokubamazonzo kwesimo.
Lo mholi oneminyaka engama-50 ubudala ubikele elaboHlanga ukuthi kumanje usekubhaceni .
“Selokhu ngiphume ejele ngisekubhaceni yikho ngingafuni ukuba ngidalulwe. Buka nje ngaboshelwa ukuthi ngatholakala nesibhamu esake sabulala umuntu kudala. Uyabona nje ukuthi yonke le nto iphekiwe ngoba amaphoyisa engasifuni thina bakaSizwe. Uyabona uma kushone umuntu kuKlipriver Taxi owners Association, abakwethu baboshwa ekuseni kodwa ngapha kithi uma kukhona oshonile kuyathuleka akuboshwa muntu. Sinebhadi ngale ndlela yokuthi ngisho abantu esingabangani nabo bayahlukunyezwa. Uyabona iMeya yaseMnambithi, uMadlala isihlukunyezwe kaningi, kwaze kwabulawa nezingane zayo ngenxa nje yokuthi iwumngani wethu,” kusho lo mthombo .
UMmeli weSizwe Taxi Association, uMnu uJastine Hunie uthe sekunesikhathi ezwa ngalesi sikhalo sokuthi amaphoyisa achemile kodwa abukho ubufakazi obubambekayo.

Ziyaba khona izikhalo kodwa azinabo ubufakazi ngoba nodaba lokuthi kuboshwa abantu bohlangothi olulodwa zigcina zitholakala ukuthi azilona iqiniso ngoba abantu bayaboshwa nhlangothi zonke,” kuchaza uHunie.
UMnu uVincent Madlala oyiMeya yaseMnambithi uthe akahlangene yena nabantu bamatekisi kodwa uyazi ukuthi uhlaselwa ngokobuMeya.
Änginalo ngisho itekisi ngakho akukho okungihlanganisa nosomatekisi. Ngisho ukubulawa kwezingane zami akuhlangene namatekisi yize imiphumela yophenyo ingakaphothulwa. Mina ngisebenze kakhulu nobenguMphathiswa Wezokuthutha KwaZulu-Natal, uMxolisi Kaunda nokuthe uma esesusiwe eMnyangweni osomatekisi benza lokhu abakwenzile kimi bawa nami,” kusho uMadlala.
UMnu uBhekuyise Masondo weKlipriver uthe abazi ukuthi laba bantu bakaSizwe bakhuluma ngani ngoba amaphoyisa uma ebopha, abopha izigebengu, awasukeli muntu.
“Nasemajele kugcwele izigebengu hhayi abantu abangenzanga lutho ngakho laba bantu bakhuluma into abangayazi. Okokuqala yibo abasihlaselayo, thina asikaze sihlasele muntu. Yikho amaphoyisa uma ephenya konke kugcina kubaholela kulaba bakaSizwe ngoba phela uphenyo lusebenza ngolwazi amaphoyisa asuke eluthola futhi kunobufakazi. Labo bantu besifazane abathi bayabulawa asibazi thina. Inkinga nabo sebelwa bodwa yikho kunje. Kuyiqiniso ukuthi ngapha ngakithi akukaze kuboshwe muntu ngenxa yokuthi uphenyo alukaze luwaholele amaphoyisa ngakithi kodwa ubufakazi busuke buwakhomba kwezinye izindawo nokungelona icala lethu lelo lokuthi asithinteki ndawo,” kusho uMasondo.

AbeHhovisi likaMphathiswa, uBheki Ntuli KwaZulu-Natal, bathe imibuzo basayidlulisele emaphoyiseni nokuthi uma bebuya bachaza ngesimo saseMnambithi.
UMnu uKwanele Ncalane ongumkhulumeli kaNtuli uthe amaphoyisa enza konke okusemandleni ukusebenza udaba lwaseMnambithi ukuze kuliwe nobugebengu.
“Ámaphoyisa ajutshwe eMnambithi asebenza ngokwethembeka nangobuqotho, yebo siyavuma ukuthi zikhona izinqinamba abhekana nazo kwamanye amacala kodwa kwenziwa isiqiniseko sokuthi awasebenza ngempumelelo. Sibuye senze nezivimbamgwaqo kuleya ndawo ukuqinisekisa ukuthi umkhankaso woMnyango wokulwa nobugebengu uba yimpumelelo ukuze kube nokusebenzisana okuhle kososeshini,”kuchaza uNcalane.
