Buffalo City Metro urges early applications for traditional celebrations to ensure compliance

# Buffalo City Metro is reminding residents hosting traditional imigidi celebrations to submit their applications for cultural slaughtering at least 14 days in advance. The reminder follows concerns over noise, litter, and animal slaughtering in urban areas like East London. The metro emphasises that compliance with municipal bylaws, including informing neighbours, is essential to avoid fines and ensure smooth, respectful celebrations. With many events planned from 21 December, the metro urges residents to engage early for a harmonious festive season.
