Human Settlements stuck to their promise─── KEKELETSO MOSEBETSI 15:48 Fri, 27 May 2022
More than 200 title deeds were handed over to their rightful owners in Mangaung, Bloemfontein, in the Free State today.
Deputy Minister of Human Settlement, Pamela Tshwete, officially handed over title deeds to residents of the metro.
Tshwete was joined by Mangaung Metro councillor Logan Kruger and Councillor Kevin van der Ross, together with other officials at the Norman Doubell community hall in Heidedal today.
Kruger appealed to residents to value their title deeds and avoid selling the houses that are allocated to them by government.
She said that residents will only benefit once, and they won’t be considered again should they decide to sell their houses.
