# Civil society collective of residents, Concerned Makhanda Residents, will stage a protest march today, calling for the removal of the mayor Yandiswa Vara and Speaker of Makana Municipality, Mabhuti Matyumza, over maladministration, corruption, and poor service delivery. The march highlights the municipality’s decade-long dysfunction and failure to meet constitutional and legislative obligations. A petition demanding intervention will be handed over to the Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs, urging immediate changes to address the town’s crisis.
