We will resist e-tolls: Vavi

Cosatu general secretary Zwelinzima Vavi vowed on Thursday to resist "with every power we have" the introduction of Gauteng's e-tolling project.

"In our view, it would be a huge mistake by government if it was to steam ahead on the basis of the Constitutional Court judgment and implement what we all know is an extremely unpopular policy decision," he said.

"We are going to resist it with every power we have."

Vavi was speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the Congress of SA Trade Unions (Cosatu) national congress in Midrand, Johannesburg.

"Cosatu remains absolutely determined to oppose the e-tolls at the street level. The mobilisation is not over," he said.
