All these so-called Shutdowns are done by disgruntled ANC supporters, they voted ANC into office knowing its flaws & now are holding residents who want to vote for change, hostage, why not go to Luthuli and shut the house down instead?🙅

Is not time for shutdown, is time to. vote come on Venda people !
