Fears government will hijack expected fuel price cuts to fund GFIP.

Concerns are being expressed that the government may hijack the consumer benefits of an expected reduction in fuel prices and use them to pay for the Gauteng Freeway Improvement Project (GFIP). Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse (Outa) CEO Wayne Duvenage said on Tuesday the organisation is concerned that Minister of Finance Enoch Godongwana may seize the opportunity presented by the expected petrol price reduction in the first week of September to increase the fuel levy by 25c to 30c per litre to raise additional revenue to cover the GFIP bonds, which the e-toll debacle has failed to do. <a href="https://kaya959.co.za">Kaya 959</a>
