The EFF revealed some shocking information about the BRUTAL murder of Hillary Gardee on Wednesday evening.
According to EFF and Gardee family spokesperson Sinawo Thambo, Hillary was found with bruises on her arms and was hanging on and clutching to pieces of grass, which indicate that at some point, she was alive, and there was resistance.
And more shocking news, a 37-year-old male in the up-market town of Kenton-On-Sea was allegedly ravaged to death by two Rottweilers last weekend – and the dogs belong to Ndlambe Municipality Mayor, Khululwa Ncamiso.
And also, on Wednesday, the Civil rights movement, Not In My Name, is planning to oppose bail for a 31-year-old suspect from Mamelodi who slit an 8-year-old girl’s throat last week.
What can we even say about our embattled power utility at this point? Eskom is broken.
The country is overwhelmingly dependent on this dysfunctional entity, and unfortunately, asking them to keep the lights on is a step too far. But are we now reaching a point where the load shedding crisis could be declared the State of Disaster?
