Speaking to the Herald on Tuesday morning, Mosina said, “We have discovered a voice note that tells the community that there will be a shut down on Mandela Day (Wednesday, 18 July).
“We are not going to allow unidentified people speaking on voice notes to mislead us. As the Randfontein People’s Party, we will call a meeting to address all the grievances in the community,” Mosina said.
Mosina added, “We urge all to wait for the meeting after Mandela Day.”
