EWN reports that the City of Tshwane says about 70% of its buses are not operational on Thursday, due to a strike by workers affiliated to the SA Municipal Workers' Union (Samwu).  

The city says it's currently unclear why workers did not reported for duty this morning.  MMC for roads and transport in Tshwane, Sheila Lynn Senkubuge, said:  “We’re very surprised that they did not come to work today, because just yesterday we had a meeting, where we spoke to them in the presence of their representatives and they said they have no grievances.”
