KaNyamazane community urged to join clean-up to honour Madiba
Imvelo Recycling KaNyamazane is planning a clean-up of the area and welcomes the public to give their 67 minutes for Madiba by joining in.
Imvelo Recycling KaNyamazane will be hosting a community clean-up on Friday July 15 as a way to honour deceased president Nelson Mandela.
Community members who would like to participate in the 67 minutes of clean-up are urged to gather at the local community hall at 08:00.
July 18 is observed as Nelson Mandela Day. The 67 minutes represent the number of years the former president had fought for human rights and the abolition of apartheid.

Imvelo is part of the Zonda Insila Programme (ZIP). ZIP was first launched in Breyten in the Msukaligwa Local Municipality in March 2019, with only four projects. The programme has since grown to a total of 14 projects, with five in Nkangala, two in Bohlabela, one in Gert Sibande and six in the Ehlanzeni District. This programme falls under the Department of Agriculture, Rural Development, Land and Environmental Affairs.
