From the Sokwanele blog which I’ve been following these past few months, are two unfortunate queue stories. The photo above is for a queue just to get into a supermarket, and today Sokwanele posted on a queue which you actually have to pay to be in.

“It is now common that commuters have to pay to queue. If you do not pay for a spot in the queue the touts simply shove you out the way for the person who has. Their retort is that if you have money to travel you have money to queue.”

It’s good to see you back in action, Will – even though the second queue was rather depressing.

Ever since I found the “Afrigator” website, I check there every day to get one of your links to the latest DRC news. Thanks a lot…

Dear David.
Yes, rather depressing. The Sokwanele blog makes for a shocking read.
