just hearing a taxi boss surrendering a fight to a police commissioner gives me peace and hope that this man can be a leader of police nationally
Thank you Mr Khwanazi for the role you have played.
You’ve ensured peace and calm in a well mannered way.
Same ppl complaining will still vote for a useless party .
I feel like this can be a beginning of a major protest before elections
It’s a possibility
Mkhwanazi should have been our national commissioner
Your government doesn't want him, they won't be able to control him. That's a real police officer there
He was acting police commissioner under Jacob Zuma. He once said “I am a cop. I want the police environment to have clean cops. If we want to fight crime we must rid the SAPS of criminals and stay with clean cops,”. Immediately the crime rate across the board decreased because of his cleanup mission. When Zuma was ousted Makhwanazi was removed on fabricated charges.
CIC JS MALEMA have long time suggested that Commissioner Mkhwanazi is more than fit to be Minister of police.
Indeed he did say that a long time....
Mkhwanazi for national commissioner

Taxis always striking .They must be replaced by desent public transport like trains and busses.
Why would a normal person want to take a whole bus or train instead of just hopping onto a taxi and going immediately? And who even has the authority to "replace" millions of taxi vehicles?
We the people must rise against this criminality hiding behind the livelihood of poor people, it's because of taxi's that our transport system is in shambles, just as an example, look at the state of these taxi ranks . The price of using a taxi is ridiculously high, and to top it all the drivers have no respect for their commuters.... The majority not all drivers though
They should be regulated and pay tax. Their drivers should be registered and contribute to pension funds etc .

@@angrysocialjusticewarrioreverywhere else in the world besides South Africa. Just today, 28 May another 13 people died in a horror taxi accident. There is a taxi accident every day. And you still want that coffins on wheels transporting you.
Poor drivers again being used by their tycoon bosses and their SA Taxi Association bosses as political pawns.
Shame on you, Controllers!
Its the drivers getting arrested and having their licenses and vehicles taken. The protest is to their benefit as well. From what i can gather about the problems the taxi industry is facing, it seems the department responsible for issuing permits is now operating like home affairs. They work whenever they want to, they issue permits to whoever they want to, and their systems are offline whenever they want to.
I hope that even after managing to geta meeting with a minister that these bosses will not make the mistake of voting for the yellow party again. If a taxi is roadworthy, the owner is registered for tax, and is a member of a valid association, they must issue a permit with the same speed they do for trucks and busses.
@@angrysocialjusticewarriorit’s deeper than that Ma’ma
Well said Sir.
Their timing though is suspicious.
They do not determine the timing. If their permits were issued properly, none of this would be happening regardless of timing.
If they do it the right way then they should wait for their pernitslike everyone else...period....but instead they're using goods vans and turning into taxi's cos it cost cheaper.
Your angry so turn your anger to the right people which is the illegal corrupt individuals trying to hold us as citizens hostage ...and yes the timing has everything to do with the elections....stop covering cos we havto obey laws so does everyone else.
What timing.it is not the first time this year,it just that you never payed attention
@@angrysocialjusticewarrior you cannot turn a panel Van into a taxi and expect a "legal " taxi permit for an illegal vehicle....
@@thokomalangcobo1824 we pay attention, that's exactly it, why can our people not have peace and prosperity, always disruption and chaos....oh I forgot that's what they thrive on to keep us as a working economy from growing while these Bosses drive flashy sport cars.
Ayi asilwi baba 😂😂😂😂.
Ey bravo Mkhwanazi
uMkhwanazi akabezwa bafo. Lendoda ay'nqeni muntu🤞🏾

lol Don't misconstrue respect to fear. Nala can squash Mkwanazi without flinching. obhuti abadala laba if you know you know
@@bathandwagumede46don’t glamourise crime.
@@Bat-Wing He is not glamorizing crime, he is being realistic. Those bosses chose to calm down because Mkwanazi told them he will hold a meeting with them on Sunday and help them get into contact with the leaders in the transport department. But people on social media seem to be getting carried away and thinking he made them afraid.
In Western cape, the whole country saw for themselves what happened when cops chose to assault drivers instead of trying to fix matter. Many officers fell victim in following weeks and things got so bad that the mayor had to release their vehicles and make a meeting with them (which is something he could have done from the beginning).
Dialogue is very important....sibonge Mkhwanazi
True, but not by blocking roads .
General Mkhwanazi our incoming national commissioner
Uyindoda Mkhwanazi
Namhlanje babumbene, kusasa babulalana bodwa.
Police must do their job
Simple things no license no permission to be on road .
So when you pay large sums of money to get all licenses and paperwork, and the government takes all that money and tells you to take a hike, you should then not be allowed to work because of some senseless department? If the state is going to play games when it comes to issuing permits, then the permit system should just be scrapped and all the payments given back to avoid confrontations between operators and enforcers.
This is due to failing of relevant official's to render services this is the results
What are they striking for???
Are you State educated or what?
Taxi drivers stopped where they wanted disgusting . 🤮
Mooi man en dan verander dit na n taal.wat net SEKERE MENSE sal verstaan....WELL DONE....
Learn isizulu if you so badly want to understand
We did it in Portsherpstone we are tired really, let's work together to fight this thing, why they don't issue permit??? It's because they are making a lot of money to this industry it's hard to be black business in SA 😭😭
Noted Nombika
Who needs reliable and safe public transportation or mechanisms that ensure fair procedures for business operators and public if we have the world's best constitution?
Hawu!!! La madoda onke awangeni endlini engcwele?
What this strike about
Me thinks this is a "Dress Rehearsal? "
@@stuartrobertse9617 LOL for what?
The impound of taxes because the permits are expired and their financial state is not great to get the permits renewad
These taxis need to be reminded who they are. They like attention, lawlessness must be dealt with harshly
Asked if you don't know what is happening
So they chose to lose money and risk their vehicles by staging a protest and getting arrested just because they like attention?
Like the other guy said, you have to ask if you don't understand what's happening.
What a stupid joke that SABC can not pronounce Mxenge in a national public broadcasting. Ngu Mdlwembe lenja
Not all black people speak your language stop your stupid pride. Offended by everything except corruption and hate
Must be arrested straight away
Poor management of public affairs
Ayy asilwi baba
Mkhwanazi indoda
What you sow that you reap
Try swapping the processes sis Rose.
Abantu bathi Mkhwanazi, Mkhwanazi uyasebenza... mina ngiyosho njalo mhla wabopha uBheki Cele
Musa ukuba dom baba, do you know the word "jurisdiction". Mkhwanazi is a provincial commissioner in KZN that should tell you his hands are tied sthuphethu
General is talking with proper education..which his making this old people understand . About who lie to them ...nw this General must ..do fix it . We'll don't sir General. U represent kzn...u bring law and order...but u still have to phone for permission. Which ur call dont get answer...only gods know whos call he taken
Lack of wisdom,that's why this country is going down
Yitshoni if sisempini silwe ke 😂
Call Hat man abd soldier's
Enough this stupid nonsense. Should be road rules not a taxi
Taxis drivers and bosses are all domkoppe like ANC
When they exersing their rights which measns they are dom wow
Taxi drivers are law unto themselves .
@@sphiwemthimkhulu6949 exactly. This isn't about rights. It's stupid to block roads which innocent people are using. Why inconvenience them?
@@MakhoMfen-nc2qd how does exercising their rights give them authority to inconvenience innocent citizens? same citizens that they rely on for their existence. Talk about biting the hand that feeds them
Where are police?
Anc is to blame
Why a taxi strike well we still got trains😂😂😂
Goodluck using your train buddy. Not every train is like the Gautrain.
@angrysicialjusticewarrior why does these taxis not obey lawlike all citizens,and the trains could all be like the gautrain if no strategic vandalism is done to benefit these "Bosses". I grew up with busses and trains and taxi...whenever bus or train drivers had to strike, the taxi's benefited and no one destroyed any taxi's or killed anyone or blocked roads.... don't glamourize thuggery or crime in any fashion cos, it just brings us down as a country and it just benefits gangsters.
So people can get killed ,with taxis that are not roadworthy
No taxis can get killed
Akliwe Mkhwanazi makuliwe kube kanye😂😂 klindweni kanti😂😂
Hey Sizwe, musu kumbasela uMkhwanazi. Uyamva nje ukuba impi ungathi ihlalala ikufutshane apha kuye, umva kwa ulwimi lwakhe ethetha, impi akayonqeni... He is even challenging the whole Taxi-men nge mpi🤣🤣🤣......
@@ziyandamaphini4722 If Bheki Cele has openly admitted to being afraid of them, then what is he to them, with a team of ill trained 20 year olds fresh from the academy? Half of these kids aren't even carrying guns, he just talking but if push comes to shove, he'd beg them as did all of his predecessors.

KZN should secede as they are dragging the rest of SA down the drain, just become your own republic or kingdom.

Nobody is seceding here, that's a colonial mentality. Why don't you go and secede EU
No one is seceding here.
Lol, how is KZN dragging SA to the drain?
