Lekwa fixes pipe responsible for the pothole that people believed claimed young woman’s life

According to the municipal workers, the pothole is expected to be fixed on 3 October.

Lekwa Municipality began repairing a leaking pipe responsible for a pothole in Nelson Mandela Drive, Meyerville on 2 October.

The pothole was blamed by many for the death of Ms Jani Grobler on 24 September.

This came after a driver swerved and collided with Ms Grobler’s vehicle which also left Mr Henk Swanepoel injured.

Some residents have already spoken out about the shoddy job done by the municipality in fixing the pothole.
