E-hailing drivers in Cape Town are demanding action following a fatal shooting of one of their colleagues. The incident, which saw the victim killed point-blank while performing his duties, has sparked condemnation from the Western Cape e-Hailing Association (WCEA). The association, represented by Secretary Omar Parker, pointed out the stark contrast between swift responses to attacks on political figures versus those targeting e-hailing drivers. While a VIP attack in Philippi drew immediate police attention and resources, the response to violent assaults against drivers remained nonexistent. Parker highlighted documented incidents of violence, including video footage of crime scenes, further emphasizing a pattern of neglect.
