2010-04-01: City takes safety of everyone in its premises serious
YESTERDAY, 31st March 2010, The Greater Johannesburg Regional Taxi Council Chairpersons held a meeting chaired by their Chairperson Mr Eric Motshwane at the City of Johannesburg premises, Metropolitan Centre in Braamfontein.
The meeting was interrupted by other Taxi Associations and Mr Motshwane adjourned the meeting.
"Our doors remain open to every taxi association but in this regard of the disruption of the meeting the City had to ask everyone to leave the building for safety reasons. The meeting room can only accommodate 20 people and after the invasion of the meeting there were about 80 people in the room, and that was not safe for everyone in the room as well as the employees of the City of Johannesburg", says Nkhensani Makhobela, Spokesperson of the Executive Mayor.
Once again I would like to emphasise that the City asked the people present at the meeting vacate the building for safety reasons.
