The Citizen spoke to some MK party volunteers at a voter registration site in Johannesburg on Saturday. They complained about a lack of resources. This, while other political parties had marquees and campaign material.

This echoes the sentiment of the party’s former spokesperson, Nhlamulo Ndhlela, who told the media on Sunday that it did not even have posters out on the voter registration weekend.

The Cape Town High Court has ordered the cancellation of a deed of sale concluded between a father and daughter after she breached their agreement.

On 15 February 2022, Reginald Norman Fredericks, a 77-year-old pensioner and sole registered owner of the property in Cape Town, and his daughter, Lauren Lee Fredericks, concluded a written deed of sale in which Reginald undertook to sell the property to her for R650 000. The two had agreed that Lauren would pay the stipulated price upon registration of the transfer of the property into her name.

On 18 May 2022, the deed of transfer was registered in Lauren’s name. However, Reginald said in his court papers that his daughter failed to pay the agreed purchase price, breaching the agreement. Reginald then elected to cancel the agreement and approached the Cape Town High Court to have the deed of sale declared null and void on the grounds that it was induced by fraud.
