Rumours are circulating that the strike is allegedly due to overtime that has not been paid to the employees, according to Letaba Herald.

A source within the KNP at the Letaba Camp informed the Letaba Herald that the fueling station is currently closed.

“Tourists are fuming, they can’t refuel, and it seems that the hut attendants are also on strike,” the source said.

Updates to follow as more information is made available.
