Parks to be turned into cemeteries to make room for the dead: https://bit.ly/1VXqik8
The Germiston City News joined in on the April Fool’s Day fun with a story of their own: “Do you enjoy walking your dog in a park near your home, or spending time there with your family? Well enjoy this while you can as, soon, all parks in Ekurhuleni will be utilised as cemeteries. The metro has been steadily running out of space to accommodate the dead for a number of years and has hit upon the idea of turning parks and green spaces into the final resting places of its residents.” The article was identified as an April Fool’s joke later in the day.

- Bianca Jansen van Rensburg, “If this is true I will be completely shocked, but then again, I know it is April 1. Will have to see if this is true or not, am still shocked.”
- Johan Coertze joked, “Yes, and when the parks are full they are going to drain Germiston and Boksburg lakes for more space.”
- Miguel Benedito joked, “No man, use the koppies instead.”
