Mpumalanga | Protests leave some shops closed

Most Spaza shops in Klarinet in eMalahleni, Mpumalanga, remain closed following marches that called for undocumented foreign nationals to leave the country.

As a result, this has left many township spaza shops vacant. A digital community engagement group called Tumbo has come on board in townships to assist residents with spaza shops.

Tumbo has set aside R250 000 to support small businesses.
