War room burns as Sithembile unrest continues

The war room is supposed to be a place where issues to help the needy are discussed but that too has borne the brunt of the community's anger

The unrest in Sithembile, Glencoe, is continuing and the latest victim is the so-called war room that was gutted by a fire.

The township has been on fire in recent weeks after accusations that ward Councillor, Lungile Mbhele of the ANC, had manipulated a jobs list to ensure that her friends and family were hired by Transnet for a temporary job.
Schooling has been disrupted and roads into Sithembile blocked. Residents have called on the Councillor and Mayor Mahaye to issue an apology.
