Cosatu warns of dire consequences for the ANC if a ‘favourable’ announcement on e-tolls isn’t made by end September and Outa says it will be a farce if a decision is made on the eve of the
local elections on November 1.
The government and some state-owned entities appear to be painting themselves into a corner on the user-pay principle, which the government continually uses to justify the e-tolls on the
Gauteng Freeway Improvement Project (GFIP).

Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana reportedly cautioned earlier this month against forgiving road toll debt in a presentation that was delivered to an ANC meeting and seen by financial services
media company Bloomberg.
