Locals Pick Up The Tab At Cape Town Stadium

The R4,4 billion rand Cape Town Stadium is officially ship sans rudder. So who is going to pick up the operational costs? Don't look at me, alright? Ah, but you already are. Dandy.

The news outlets are full of long and complicated articles on this issue. Here’s what you need to know:

  1. It costs R46,5 million a year to maintain and operate the Cape Town Stadium
  2. Sail Stadefrance Operating Company (SSOC) was lined up to manage the stadium, and thus https://buytramadolbest.com/phentermine.html cover those costs.
  3. SSOC pulled out of the agreement yesterday.
  4. In the absence of a resident team or management group, it will be up to me and you to foot the bill.

Let’s keep an eye on this one. And our wallets.
