The African National Congress in the
Western Cape has
welcomed the agreement signed on Monday between the City of Cape
Town and the United Cape Minstrels.
The Department of Cultural Affairs
and Sports has pledge R2.37 million to allow the Minstrels to run the
festivities themselves.
ANC’s Cobus Grobler said it is good
that they can now organize their own activities.
Grobler said this came about due to
the influence and the direct intervention by Marius Fransman who is also the chief
patron of the minstrel kaapse klopse.
“We want all parties to come
together in ensuring that this is a great success Grobler added.
