New Names In Eastern Cape

[Phillip Coetser]

Hi all, for information.....new names are on the cards for towns, cities and airports in the Eastern Cape. Name changes have come under increased scrutiny in recent years because of the associated costs, placing further pressure on the country’s already strained fiscus.
The opposition Democratic Alliance said that it would oppose the ‘frivolous’ name changes in the Buffalo City Metropolitan.
“Renaming these Buffalo City Metro towns and the airport will not increase tourism, boost investment, improve service delivery, create employment or eradicate the problems residents face on a daily basis,” said the DA’s Chantel King.
“Instead of spending millions on new signage, the money should be used to improve the lives of the people of the Buffalo City Metro.”
