NEWCASTLE MUNICIPALITY MAYOR CALLS FOR KILLERS OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN TO BE DECLARED AS HAVING COMMITTED A CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY.
This morning I welcomed a group of cyclists who are taking part in a Gender-Based Violence awareness campaign. They are riding their bicycles from Soweto to Durban, with the aim of drawing attention to GBV. As the Newcastle Local Municipality, we’ve firmly thrown our full support for this program and have committed to bolster our efforts in the fight against Gender-Based Violence in Newcastle. The group proceeded to Newcastle High School, where they further addressed pupils.
American academic and diplomat Samantha Power once said, “violence against women isn’t cultural. Equality cannot come eventually, it’s something we must fight for now.” As we celebrate and commemorate Heritage Month, we need to consider that we’ve disregarded certain core values that exist within all our culture and heritage. The merciless, vile, cruel, despicable, and senseless killing of women and children continues to fragment and divide our society. The protection of women and children is enshrined in all religious and cultural doctrines. The act of gender-based violence is abnormal, alien and we need to confront it as speedily as possible. I humbly call upon men to lead this charge, as we did in days of old, when men knew that it was taboo to physically lay a hand on a helpless woman and child.
Today, as Mayor of Newcastle Local Municipality, I want to boldly declare that anyone responsible for the senseless killing of women and children, should be declared as having committed a crime against humanity. These criminals need to be severely punished and removed from society for good. I will personally lead this daring and audacious feat until all sectors of society realize that this radical call is a last resort in our fight against these heinous crimes.
It is extremely unfortunate and shameful that the latest statistics indicate that over ten thousand women have been raped, abused, and murdered in the last three months. These appalling figures do not reflect on the principle and fundamental values of any heritage or culture. Marcus Garvey once said that a people without the knowledge of their history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots. Historically, men have been protectors of women and children, that is our origin. We need to instil this historical discourse of protection of women and reflect on the methods that our forefathers used to confront this abnormal behaviour.
As we reflect, commemorate, and celebrate our unity in diversity, let us be reminded that our traditional roots are our firm anchorage of our identity. Let us unapologetically embrace our uniqueness, cultural differences and celebrate who we are. Let us continue to dispel and shun away voices that seek to divide us as a society. I urge fellow residents of Newcastle to deepen efforts of unity, and look beyond race and skin colour, for it is only through this act that we can achieve a unified society that tolerates cultural differences.
In closing, I sound a clarion call to the brave MEN of Newcastle and urge them to go back to their cultural and heritage roots, which are to protect women and children at all costs.
Issued by the Newcastle Local Municipality Mayor Dr Ntuthuko Mahlaba.

You and propagandist government are the root cause of this GBV which plans have you put in place to uplift men all we hear are women empowerment programs and women getting preferential treatment when it comes to work gave women and children rights not because you cared about them rather because your plan is to devide black families for the past 27 yrs ANC has been pulling a Willie Lynch let's make a slave on black people of SA nothing to address the past injustices you and your modern Nation Party (ANC) must take full accountability of the state our Country finds itself in from teenage pregnancy, drugs ,prostitution, crime ,racial tension , GBV and high unemployment rate ANC is nothing but a devils fart a curse to SA

Why it's received by Newcastle Municipality instead of the community?
Many companies are now giving the municipal food parcels. Yet it gets handed out in the rural areas only and the municipal takes the credit for it. Question is What is really going on here. I smell a rat and corruption.
Nithe manigidlabezwa ngokudla nani namuva ningumaspala? As local government, do you think food can feed the hunger of Newcastle community, just food? Nizithuphethu Nina ezingenendaba ne future of City of Newcastle but you just secure your pockets. We are hungry but not for food, just growth man. Growth and Development!
We need jobs not handouts!
What did it cost the Municipality ( citizens of Newcastle ) to receive these "free handouts" from this Corporate. What has the Municipality given to the Corporate?
Kazi kuzofika yini kwabakudinga ngempela 😏 or kuyonikwa obhululu babo or kudayiswe 🙄
Ngelinye ilanga kuyozwakala abanye bazenza bahle kwabanye ,abanye bayahlupheka ngenxa yabanye abazenza khle kwabanye
How to apply for it we have relatives and neighbors who deserve
Kunabantu abawadingayo angenza omkhulu umehluko ezimpilweni zabo. E ward 16 ku VD yase Sizwe asinama ward committee so akubhaliswanga
They will give it to comrades.but bese beza kith masebefuna ama voti
Kodwa abasebenz base iscor abaytholi imali mabelimalile or bashone ngokulimala kwase msebenzin👀👀 we see you shame🚮

Weeh kwasuka lokho bazodayisela ugogoke manje ew
Ama grocery wabo engani Laba kuyafana nje
I personally begged three different ward councils for help 2 didn't bother to even reply and one turned me down and told me they where finished handing out. I'm in ward 5. Very disappointed 😞
Every ward received 200 parcels to distribute amongst those who's names where on the list. Many households who did place there name on the list.never received a food parcel. Question is what happened.to.those food parcels. ? Ward 5,is one of those areas whereby many who placed.there name on the list never received anything. Then again it wont surprise me as it seem to he a ongoing problem in ward 5 whereby our local counselor does not care about the people or the ward but only what they can benifit from.the people or the ward. . Everybody is too quick to run the Mayors name.down but not a word.is mentioned over corrupt ward counselors.
Those millions should have gone to community development 🤔, fixing dusty streets which become muddy during rainy season. There's also problems with electricity which needs to be improved. ÀNCs strategy to get votes really sucks and it's evil to think people are hungry for food. People need jobs and infrastructure improved not this shit parcels.
Aksekho vele
We don't need food parcels we need jobs dumb ass
I smell corruption here
I hope everyone who deserve it will get it
