Pls don't close only where the problem is, learn to prevent, which is better than cure🙏

I thought they are already sealed, snail pace from madala. I swear from now the community will start killing anyone they see around those mines and that's peoples justice ⚖️🤞

Useless minister of them all

They're working on sealing the holes? They just need to call ready mix concrete trucks and pour

They are always caught sleeping oGwede madoda. Haiii this government.

Geraldmohlabe Why should govt spend our money to close mine dumps? Where are the companies that operated those mines? Sad.

All talk and no action as usual from the so called Leadership .😊

Always reactive

I really appreciate allison_grillo effort for turning my little investment of R8000 i got a big smile on my face after withdrawing R80,000 as my profit i just want to make everyone know of allison_grillo and how she has helped me through tough times .

I have always hated Bitcoin and thought it was a scam until a friend referred me to Allison_Grillo, I made my first withdrawal of R100,000 in 2 weeks thanks to Allison_Grillo.

Why aren't they forcing mining firms that left those mines to close the holes? Now tax payers monies will be wasted on this🙆‍♂️

He just woke up from a deep sleep, he is hallucinating.Ncxa!!!!
