A significant milestone for Endumeni Local Municipality From a Disclaimer to a Qualified Audit — a clear sign of progress, accountability, and strengthened governance.

Under the leadership of His Worship the Mayor, Cllr. AM Mkhize, we continue restoring Endumeni to its rightful glory.

Ward 6 Councillor Shelembe of Endumeni Local Municipality successfully hosted a 16 Days of Activism for No Violence Against Women and Children outreach and peaceful march on 11 December 2025. The event was held at Craigside Hall, where community members gathered in large numbers to show their support for the fight against gender-based violence (GBV).

This year’s campaign was held under the inspiring theme:

“Men, women, boys and girls working together to end gender-based violence.”

The programme began with a peaceful march aimed at raising awareness, educating the community, and delivering a strong, united message calling for an end to violence in all forms. Participants walked through the community streets, demonstrating solidarity and commitment to protecting women and children.

Several important stakeholders joined the event to educate and engage community members, including representatives from:

• Department of Social Development

• Legal Aid South Africa

• IEC

• Public Constituency Office

• Community Safety and Liaison and other community partners

Each organisation shared valuable information on safety, legal rights, available support services, and the importance of reporting abuse.

In his closing remarks, Councillor Shelembe expressed gratitude to the people of Ward 6 for their strong turnout and continued dedication to creating a safer community. He encouraged residents to remain vigilant, protect women and children, and report any form of abuse immediately.

The event concluded with a renewed sense of unity and determination to confront and end gender-based violence in the community.

Young tech minds at work. This is how things are shaping up at the tech games station in Linpark High School.

Today marks the third day of the ongoing search for a 35-year-old woman who was swept away during the heavy rains and flooding that engulfed Endumeni on Saturday evening. The incident occurred in Ward 4, where severe stormwater flows led to her being swept away.

His Worship the Mayor, Cllr. A.M. Mkhize, together with Ward Councillor Andile Nsibande and other Municipal Councillors, are on the ground supporting the SAPS Search and Rescue Unit, the Disaster Management Team, and all other stakeholders involved in this difficult operation. The family of the missing woman, along with concerned community members, remain present and hopeful as the search continues.

Specialised K9 Units from Vryheid and Richards Bay have also joined the operation, working tirelessly alongside all teams to assist in locating the missing woman.

The Municipality extends its sincere gratitude to every member of the search teams for their commitment, cooperation, and resilience. Our thoughts remain with the family during this painful and uncertain time, and we urge the community to keep them in their prayers.

Further updates will be provided as new information becomes available.

Please be advised that a strong storm and heavy rain has affected several areas in Endumeni, leaving parts of the community without electricity and some places impacted by flooding and water damage.

We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.

Our teams are on the ground attending to the electricity faults and assessing the areas affected by the rain. We are working urgently to restore services and ensure everyone’s safety.
