“Le ntsha esicijiwe izosizwa esibambisene nabo kulolu hlelo ukuqala amabhizinisi ayo ezamandla futhi izobhekwa ngeso elibukhali ngabazi kabanzi ngale mboni isikhathi esithile kuze kube wukuthi amabhizinisi abo esekwazi ukuzimela ngokwawo,” kusho uNtombela.
Uthe ubafisela okuhle njengoba sebengena kwezamabhizinisi, nokuthi unethemba lokuthi lolu hlelo luzovuna izithelo.
