The Nelson Mandela Bay’s informal settlement were earmarked to undergo a “cleaning” project on November 1, 2018.

The so-called “clean & green” project would have created 200 temporary jobs. Initially, head of public health, Yolisa Pali disrupted the project as she was not familiar with the task.

St Francis Bay fire: Mayor blames “informal settlers” for causing the blaze

Posted on Leave a comment

Horatio Hendricks has revealed what he believes the cause of the St Francis Bay fire to be, pinning the blame on a nearby informal settlement.

A raging fire tore through the coastal resort of St Francis Bay on Tuesday, as up to 20 homes were gutted by the blaze. Evacuations were carried out quickly and there has been no loss of life to report.

The fire has now been contained by the local fire department, who are also being assisted by resources from the Nelson Mandela Bay municipality. St Francis Bay is over 100km from the region, just south of Jeffrey’s Bay.
