This week, the price of petrol increased by 81cents per litre, taking the price of a litre of 95-octane petrol in the Gauteng province to R20.35 supposedly.
However, according to the department of mineral resources and energy, the price increase that was going around was a mistake – the price increase was, in fact, 6 cents less, at 75 cents per litre.
The department made a big blunder, but we all make mistakes, don’t we? “What would you say has been your biggest mistake this year?” Thomas and Skhumba ask Kaya 959 listeners.
