Santaco Faces Femicide Crisis | Johannesburg News

Santaco, the South African National Taxi Council, is sounding the alarm over the horrific discovery of eight women’s bodies in Gauteng, calling it a national scourge and a stark reminder of the deep-rooted crisis of gender-based violence. Despite just launching a national awareness campaign, they’re clear: this isn’t just a government issue—it’s a societal emergency demanding unity from communities, businesses, and every citizen. Leveraging their daily mobility role, Santaco urges law enforcement to act decisively to protect the vulnerable. Looking ahead, they’re preparing for their National Prayer Day in October, using faith as a rallying point alongside urgent real-world action to combat GBVF, taxi violence, and drug abuse—committed to building a safer society where no one moves through life in fear.
