During this festive season, let us not forget those less fortunate and share even the little that we have with them. Remember the spirit of Ubuntu.

We should join hands this festive season with a noble resolve to help overcome all the social ills and also to strive to restore the moral fibre of our society.

Estcourt is a holiday town and at this time of the year, it is filled with tourists and holiday makers. I would like to appeal to all residents to please be patient and friendly.

Whichever way we are going to enjoy this festive season, please let’s look after each other and take care of one another. Those who will be visiting our beautiful town – we say enjoy it and go and tell the world of Inkosi Langalibalele.

Let us make this a festive season of hope and work together again for a better life for all in the New Year, for the common good of our town and our country.

Christmas is the festival of God’s love, so let us start a new venture this Christmas. God will shower His blessings on us, so cheer up and celebrate!

Inkosi Langalibalele Local Municipality Mayor Councillor Jabu Mbele together with councillors wishes everyone a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.
