UASA Media Release: 04 April 2023
Statement by Abigail Moyo, spokesperson of the trade union UASA:
Effective at midnight today, the price drop for diesel and wholesale illuminating paraffin of 78c per litre and R1.39 per litre, respectively, is good news.
With Easter weekend around the corner, petrol-pumped vehicle consumers are less fortunate, with minute price drops of a mere 1.5c a litre for 95 unleaded petrol and 4c a litre for 93 grade.
Motorists travelling to different destinations over the Easter holidays will experience little relief as they fill up for longer distances than usual.
UASA urges its members and fellow South Africans to be smart about their household finances and curb spending on unnecessary items over Easter. We encourage everyone to stay safe and vigilant, drive safely and spend wisely.
