This is part of the Mayor’s Christmas With Our People programme of spreading the season’s good wishes amongst Tshwane residents. “Christmas is a time to celebrate successes and friendships, but also to think about those not so fortunate. We must continue to look out for our neighbours, especially those who are sick or elderly, and to speak up for children who are at risk. The holiday season is also a time when we are particularly grateful to those who cannot take time off with their families because they are taking care of all of us, including medical staff, the police and the fire service. These extraordinary people are not concerned with recognition or reward and they deserve to be given credit by all,” said Mayor Ramokgopa.
