Civic leaders call for businesse' bail out

Tuesday this week, Ntshe ward councillor Eric Mabengano said the continuous closure of some businesses might be a strong indication that the current government’s measures meant to help businesses navigate challenges brought by COVID-19 are not enough or effective.

Responding to the Mayor’s speech at an ordinary full council, Mabengano said that some of the firms in the city also continue to retrench workers despite the fact that this is not allowed under the State of Emergency.
