BOFEPUSU Slam '100% Carrying Capacity' Knee-Jerk Reaction

Just as operators were about to retire their buses in protest on Saturday, the Director of Health Services Dr Malaki Tshipayagae announced that public transportation would now be allowed to operate at full capacity to restore the informal economy.

Bus operators were about to down tools following the coronavirus (COVID-19) regulations that limited the number of passengers to carry, which had affected their bottom line, forcing government to allow the sector to open all the way and load at full capacity by filling up the available seats.
