# Tax Justice SA founder, Yusuf Abramjee has welcomed Finance minister Enoch Godongwana’s acknowledgment of the devastating scale of the illicit cigarette trade. He says the minister’s acknowledgment that South Africa is struggling to plug a hole leaking 100-million-rand a day as a result of illicit cigarettes validates years of warnings. Abramjee says acknowledgment without action is worthless, and urged authorities to now crack down on the illicit cigarette trade syndicates in the country:
