Fairbrigde Seleka's taxi parked outside his home in Burgerrecht in Bochum district, Limpopo. In Polokwane, Limpopo's Department of Roads and Transport provided more that R25-million for taxi operators to ferry football fans to 5 different Public Viewing Areas during the FIFA World Cup. Each of the province's five districts has one Public Viewing Area, which will provide impoverished rural communities that cannot afford tickets the opportunity of watching all the Bafana Bafana matches during the month-long tournament live on big screens. There were 250 taxis assigned to the 5 districts with around 50 taxis per district. This will be the closest experience many locals will have with the 2010 FIFA World Cup since many live in villages without electricity.
