Best run city in South Africa ne? Plus, what was the point of this councillor being interviewed? He gave nothing!
P.W Botha was 100% right.
This man puts so much faith in the police – they can be complicit in these murders.
Every day at least 20 people die everyday in Cpt
Maybe we need a new approach to deal with crime in cape town
More news/publicity for this than all the farm murders
I wish I could leave.
Guys It is bad! The cause of all this it is what's called "collection" from the Somalian shops… Two group gangsters fighting over this monies! 😢
Close signal in prison all will went well and no telephone on prisons let them be isolated from community at the end they must face their music they will come right and clean
Oops it's obviously over turf or drugs …should there be Khayelitsha involved !!!
Unfortunately this extortion thing is a way of living big driving expensive cars and live big yha neh it's not easy to stop it bcs government is also there
My fiance was staying exactly in this house plz can i see them pictures him child is still young to be fatherless 😭😭😭💔💔💔
Send The gangsters to trump Or Ukraine
This stays so sad….
It must be compulsory for law abiding citizens to be armed by the government to protect their families. And let's remember cops are not bodyguards.
Very sorry for citizens on Cape Flats. Can it not be made more SAFE there. Its dreadful to live with fear all the time!!
Why is it wrong when us coloureds take things into our own hands
Gangsterism IS terrorism… It should be treated as such …
Palestine is at peace where is genocide now right here at home every week people are being killed because of unemployment
The fact that this man is talking and not police giving a update is evidence enough….
i don't understand why they can't just release the army in these arears , this is never going to stop these people have no care for human life .
Just wondering: if government provided a transport system such that the public in the affected areas wouldn't depend on taxis, would the violence not stop or be reduced at least? Taxi owners seem not to care about customers. If a canned food producer recklessly endangers customers they are penalized or loose their license. The same should go for taxi owners.
Just another day in sunny SA
Tragic
Cape town. 😮
Wow, this councillor is overqualified
Why is this guy smiling thr whole time???
Bheki Cele said it . This country is Sodom and Gomorrah . Anyway Mkwananzi is for real. Molife don't run
Bring in the flippen army and do search for drugs and guns in every house!
Our president must be dead, why doesn't he do his job????
He must step aside if he is so useless to do the most obvious thing to stop crime in the Cape Flats!!!
What I learned from this interview…
*fokall
He's afraid to say they are fighting for the "protection fee" they are extorting from Somali shops.
Lol the broadcaster is so bad at her job jeaus
killing in South Africa is like taking candy from a baby,you only get scolded and then you must pay R1000 bail in court then you be out of jail the next day,so that you can do another killing,it's as easy as that,
CALL ON MKHWANASI.. HE WOULD HAVE BEEN THERE YESTERDAY AND GIVEN A PROPER SPEECH
Let them march for Palestine tho😂😂😂
The gentleman was happy being on tv,he keeps saying "thank you for the opportunity"
Unfortunately there is no political will to stop this it's so so sad all these killings 😢
