Sikonathi Mantshantsha says drop in fuel prices in November will bring relief

Deputy editor at Financial Mail Sikonathi Mantshantsha says petrol prices are predicted to drop by 20 to 30 cents in November due to a drop in the price of oil.

Oil hit a low of $65 yesterday and that's a two month low. The rand has also strengthened to about R14.45 to the dollar, which means you will pay less for fuel at the pump.

— Sikonathi Mantshantsha, deputy editor at Financial Mail

We have had about eight petrol price increase this year, even a small relief will be a great one.

— Sikonathi Mantshantsha, deputy editor at Financial Mail

Mantshantsha also shared this thoughts on the week Home Affairs Minister, Malusi Gigaba has had.

Mantshantsha said Gigaba has disqualified himself three times as a Minister in the republic to a point even the Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane thinks its too much.

Mkhwebane believes the President should act against Gigaba for his "slippery tongue".
