Hundreds of mourners, including political leaders, gathered in Scenery Park, East London, on Wednesday for the mass funeral service of 21 teenagers who died in mysterious circumstances at Enyobeni tavern on June 26.

Cele spent several minutes defending his struggle credentials.

The Eastern Cape Liquor Board has cited staffing issues after the tragic and mysterious deaths of 21 youths at Enyobeni Tavern in the Eastern Cape about a week ago.

Power to the Ngwathe local municipality in the Free State has been restored but Eskom has warned there is still a risk of overloading.

On Friday overloading by the municipality tripped and damaged the Eskom network, leaving Parys and Vredefort without electricity and knock-on water outages while the municipality worked to come up with the cash to honour its promise to pay for the repairs.

Ngwathe, which has an Eskom debt of R1.54bn, paid the R1.1m for the repairs on Monday.
