The importance of setting up a trust

Last Will and Testament

Premier drags his feet on filling critical Safety Department post

Letters to the Editor

Dear MyPE The Department of Safety and Liaison has not had a permanent Head of Department for a year and a half, as the Eastern Cape Premier, Phumulo Masualle, is dilly-dallying with regards to filling the post.

Failure to fill this position for a year and a half shows just how out of touch Premier Masualle is with the high rate of crime in this province. In response to a …
