7 May 2019
Vuwani in Limpopo is under lockdown as residents threaten violence on the eve of the general elections.
Several government services have been forced to shut down and police are already in strategic positions around the vast area.
The residents are gathered at a local stadium where they are chanting anti-government slogans and demanding that officials at the Department of Cooperative Governance, Human Settlements and Traditional Affairs, including MEC Jerry Ndou, visit the area to address them.
Pro-Makhado Task Team leader Arnold Mulaudzi told News24 that they have been in contact with Ndou.
