EWN reports that with the petrol strike in its second week, the South African Petroleum Industry Association (Sapia) has assured motorists that it’s doing its best to ensure fuel petrol is delivered to stations around Gauteng.
Negotiations between the Chemical Energy Paper Printing Wood and Allied Workers’ Union (Ceppwawu) and the association reached yet another deadlock on Friday, with neither party willing to compromise on wages. The association’s Fani Tshifularo said they were working on ensuring that motorists were able to fill up their tanks. “What we need to do is to continue to catch up to support those areas where there have been some fuel shortages,” he indicated.
