The African National Congress Youth League Dullah Omar Region calls on Mayor Patricia De Lille to move the annual Festival of Lights Celebrations multimillion Rand event away from Adderley Street to Khayelitsha’s Jafta Masemola Road- one of the biggest streets on the Cape Flats.

We are calling for the Mayor of the City to move the event to Khayelitsha, because that’s where African people and in particular the oppressed in the past are concentrated”. Said Mika Mahlaule

He added “And we are making this call precisely because the event takes place at 21:00 PM where many people struggle to get to the City because of transport”.
