Commuters cry foul

Tshesebe resident Kegomoditswe Mazwi, a worker at the Outreach Project for Youth, said the drivers normally refuse to carry them because there are Combis designated to transport people to these destinations.

"These drivers are very rude that at times they tell us to wait and after that they dont bother to give you feedback," she said. She claimed that the drivers abandon them at night, which forces them to hitchhike. She said due to the scarcity of Combis that commute between Francistown and Tshesebe, it sometimes becomes difficult to find transport. This forces them to use Ramokgwebana Combis. Mazwi said that sometimes when the Ramokgwebana Combis agree to carry them, they force them to travel standing while passengers who go to the border are seated.
