POLOKWANE – Youth from Flora Park have taken to the street this morning to voice their concern over service delivery and illegal activities which takes place in the area.
There are complaints about water issues saying they have not had consistent water flow for the last four years. They have also called for the police to monitor the areas more closely as they say Flora Park has become a township due to the criminal elements and illegal activities in the area.

3 policemen forced me into the van and we were forcing me to delete this video. I can only remember 2 names. Magodi and Baloyi. I refused and they threw me out of the van further injuring me.
