Service delivery is about improving people’s lives, not expedient election promises

A pastor and residents in informal settlements are opening their hearts to destitute children

About 40 Thembelihle children have not been admitted to schools yet, which parents have blamed on the Gauteng education department’s incompetency.

As school admission issues continue to plague Thembelihle pupils, activists battle to place students three weeks after schools have reopened.

The Gauteng education department are dragging their feet to get pupils living in Thembelihle into schools in Lenasia.

With general secretary Zwelenzima Vavi favouring the ANCYL’s economic freedom march and president Sdumo Dlamini dead against it, whither Cosatu now?

Residents of Thembelihle, who staged a protest over housing and water grievances, are set to discuss the issues with Gauteng housing officials.
