Klerksdorp Record, Klerksdorp - Gang wars in Jouberton are at breaking point where three residents died in recent clashes.

Klerksdorp Rekord, Klerksdorp - Nie een van die 22 leerlinge aan boord van die KHS-skoolbus wat vroeër vandeesweek in ‘n botsing betrokke was, is ernstig beseer nie.

Klerksdorp Record, Stilfontein - The smell of raw sewerage all over town is not only nauseating but the impact the overflowing sewer drains have on the environment and on residents’ health needs to be addressed.

Sewerage problems in Stilfontein are nothing new, but what irks residents most is that nothing seems to be done about it. In Umgeni Street, people are fuming about a gaping trench in the street that was dug to replace a sewer pipe after it collapsed. Resident Barbara Botha is very vocal about the situation after the construction company stopped their work at the site because Matlosana’s Municipal Manager did not sign off on the order. “I cannot blame them for stopping the work, because they need to get paid. I just do not understand why the MM cannot give the go-ahead for the work. In the meantime, all the sewerage gets pumped in storm water drains that ends up in the river.’’
