NMMU PETITION: Unlawful Protests violating our Right to Education
The ongoing unlawful protests taking place at Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University are preventing many of the students from attending lectures and thus are a violation of our constitutional right to education.

ban fireworks in ALL residential area's
Why must our pets go through trauma every year? Fireworks is a menace and should be banned. If you want to shoot the rubbish then there should be a specified location OUTSIDE and far away from any form of residential area. This should become illegal and those found in possession or using them should be severely punished. This country is in turmoil and its time to STAND TOGETHER

No Bail For Lenasia Drug Dealers
As members of the Lenasia community, we believe the accused Ebrahim Khan aka "ChaCha" and Sherwin has expressed no intention to refrain from dealing in drugs in our community. This has led them to be arrested once again for participating in this crime against society. We therefore urge the courts not to allow these repeater offenders to re-enter our community and incacerated them until their trial begins and that they oppose their bail which will be heard at Protea Magistrates Court 7 on Thursd
