Jokes, Memes, Despair: SA Motorists React To Petrol Price Hike

Dumelang. I have just put fuel in my car. It is already expensive and tomorrow South Africans will even pay up to R16/l. The inflationary pressure on this coupled with a Vat hike makes it difficult for SAfricans to cope with cost of living.We should deal with the tax hike on fuel

Just filled up my tank with a broken heart... To think that next week I'll be paying more than this 💔. We are just trying to live a clean life and be good citizens and this is what we get? #PetrolPrice
