Ramaphosa 'concerned' about impact on workers, commuters after experiencing 3-hour train delay
ANC president Cyril Ramaphosa has expressed "serious concern" after a delayed metro rail train he boarded on Monday arrived at its destination three hours behind schedule due to technical problems.
"The president expressed serious concern at the delays and their impact on workers who rely on this mode of public transport to reach their workplaces.
"The combination of factors that caused the delays, including vandalism, are a cause for serious concern," acting ANC national spokesperson Dakota Legoete said in a statement on Monday.
Ramaphosa, along with other ANC officials, was on campaigning for the party and interacted with commuters ahead of the national general May 2019 elections.
The governing party further condemned the attack of a train driver at Schutte Street station.
