BOSA leader, Mmusi Maimane, visited the scene of the fire this morning. In the meanwhile, BOSA local leadership will be setting up a table to assist those affected materially and emotionally.

We would like to commend Joburg Emergency Services on their rapid and efficient response to the devastating fire and commit ourselves to assisting positively at this time, and to ensuring that we work cooperatively with our political peers and community groups, and in government in the future, to ensure that such tragedies are mitigated through reliable, efficient and effective political governance and service delivery.” – reads the media statement.
