A major joint clean-up campaign dubbed ‘Phakama Vaal’ kicked off at various illegal dumping hotspots in the Sedibeng District last week.

The initiative led by Gauteng MEC for Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (CoGTA) Jacob Mamabolo and the Executive Mayor of Emfuleni Local Municipality (ELM) Sipho Radebe is part of the Executive Mayor’s “Clean My City” campaign, which aims to restore dignity, health, and pride to communities.

For the past few years, the Vaal Triangle has been riddled with mushrooming illegal dumping sites as a result of a lack of household refuse collection by ELM.

Previously, DA Shadow MMC for Public Works Dady Mollo, raised concerns about the suffering residents had to endure due to a lack of services.

“Residents continue to endure unsanitary conditions, with waste accumulating in the streets. This is a clear failure by the municipality to provide basic services to its people. The people of Emfuleni deserve better, they deserve a clean, healthy, and safe environment.”

Mollo demanded immediate action from the municipality to restore waste collection services across all areas.

In a statement, ELM said the eight-day intensive operation is already showing visible and meaningful results.

“Over the past two days, we have seen substantial progress across multiple wards, with streets being cleared, illegal dumping sites removed, and public spaces revived. Even more heartening has been the overwhelmingly positive feedback from residents, who are not only welcoming the clean-up but are starting to take ownership of their environment.”

The ELM called on community members to play their part in keeping the environment clean.
“We cannot clean the same spaces repeatedly if we don’t change our habits. Illegal dumping is not just an eyesore, it is a threat to our health, our safety, and the future of our children.”

In response to these utterances by ELM, residents said that the initiative would only be effective if the municipal.

🔴 Tragic Discovery of Missing Individuals in Nigel 🔴

A heartbreaking discovery has been made in the case of Kamogelo Happy Lebea and his friend Themba, who had been missing for several days. Their lifeless bodies were found near Spaarwater in Nigel, bringing a sorrowful end to the search efforts initiated by family and friends.

A tragic incident occurred on Thursday when a young boy was hit by a car while on his way to school. Witnesses reported that the driver, who had been transporting the boy, dropped him off in the middle of the street, claiming she was late for work. The driver alleged that the boy was playing on the road and fell, and she didn't notice him until it was too late. She attempted to swerve, but unfortunately, the incident occurred.

The circumstances surrounding the incident are still unclear, and it's uncertain what exactly led to the accident. An investigation would be necessary to determine the facts and assign responsibility.

It's a concerning situation, especially given the driver's reported actions of dropping the child off in a potentially unsafe location and prioritizing being late for work over ensuring the child's safety. The well-being and safety of children, especially when commuting to school, should be a top priority.

A devastating incident occurred last night in Vlakfontein Ext 1, resulting in the death of a Johannesburg Metropolitan Police Department (JMPD) officer. Officer Matome Mokoena, 33, was shot nine times while on duty with his colleague.
The officers were on patrol when they responded to a reported robbery incident. They spotted a VW Polo suspected to be involved in the robbery and attempted to stop it. The suspects refused to comply, leading to a high-speed chase. When the officers approached the vehicle, they were met with gunfire and forced to take cover. Despite their efforts to seek safety, Officer Mokoena was fatally shot.

The suspects stole the officer's service firearm and hijacked a JMPD patrol vehicle. The vehicle was later abandoned in Lehae after a tracking company disabled it. A search for the suspects is currently underway.

The JMPD and law enforcement agencies are working to apprehend those responsible for this heinous crime. The incident highlights the risks and sacrifices made by law enforcement officers in the line of duty.
