LEBO Gunguluza, Port Elizabeth-born millionaire: "he worked hard for his money” and that’s the honest way! Well done.

LABOUR BROKERS WON’T BE BANNED
THE reason why the labour brokers can’t be banned is the regime’s business interest in them.

ELECTRICITY CONCERNS
THE name is right: IBT – it is Income Boosting Time for all the bonuses that our government must get.
G
MY house is using 80.5 units in five days, but there’s no-one in the house from 7am to 4pm. Please, I need help.
R GUBAYO, MOTHERWELL, PORT ELIZABETH
IT’S not about paying R100 and getting fewer units, it’s about who is pulling additional units at night, forcing you to buy more and pushing you into the next bracket.
KM
FOR R900 we got 602 units of electricity. Eskom have to recover their money somehow after spending R36-million on a staff function. Daylight robbery.
CONSUMER
REPLY to CVG: you have been robbed. I buy for R100 and get 80.5 units.

KAZEKA Kuse, go out there and make it happen, and stop the victim mentality.

KAZEKA Kuse, if there was a violent takeover of power would the black majority be any better off?

HOSTING AFCON CUP COSTS MILLIONS
NMBM has to cough up for the Afcon Cup, which means the ratepayers have to cough up. We, the residents, are tired of the NMBM draining us. How does this benefit Port Elizabeth?
SK
DANNY Jordaan, why don’t you pay the R20-million needed to host Afcon? You want it, you pay for it!

AVRIL GORDON TELLS OF HER ORDEAL
FREDERICK Gordon is a monster. He must never come back to society.
MBONA, PORT ELIZABETH
FRED Gordon, remember Pappa is waiting for you!
READER
RELEASE Frederick Gordon on his own recognisance. It’s not the legal or ethical thing to do, but it may be the moral thing to do!

CRADOCK TAXI, BUS CRASH HORROR
THE authorities are to blame for not intervening when taxis make illegal turns, stop everywhere, etc. To get them to obey rules, punish every time.
MOTORIST
THOSE taxis from Cape Town should be banished. Enough is enough. Every accident is being caused by those taxis. Let us use those buses such as City to City.
COMMUTER
YES AL, the cops are afraid of the taxis!
MARIETJIE
I FULLY agree with T Friend regarding the road murders.
TWM
I TOTALLY agree with T Friend! Port Elizabeth must have the worse drivers in South Africa by far!

REPLY TO READER COMMENTS
I AGREE with CK ("Why must motorists pay?”). Can the municipality please stop wasting money and do something about Mission Road?

NO COPS ON ROAD
I LEFT East London at 6am, arrived in Port Elizabeth at 9.15, and not a traffic cop to be seen. Why?
