The Residents of alrapark had to travel to town to certify their documents at the Nigel police station, With any form of reporting they had to go to Nigel. Money spent just for a taxi to travel to town to report a case

Im not in favour of vandalising of the police station but that police station was not serving any purpose it did not function at all for the past 15 to 20 years now.

But then those RDP houses are not yet completed. Theres no water even electricity that project is slow The DA cllr knows.

'Condemn' What does that even mean? If that's against the law, perpetrators must go to jail finish and klaar.

ARREST THEM YOU IDIOTS. THAT'S YOUR JOB!! Anyone may protest, but not by infringing on the rights of others. Destruction of public property is treason.

Why are they condemning? Arrest! It boggles my mind when they condemn. Its like momma threatening me with a wooden spoon and never beat me.

This kind f behaviour should be classed as treason and the maximum sentence should be handed out

They must be arrested 4life
