Aphelele died as a result of the fall, while his twin sister, Aphile, was critically injured and is in a coma. Yesterday would have marked the twins' eighth birthday.
The march was organised by the advocacy group March and March alongside the MK Party labour desk, drawing a substantial crowd of residents and supporters demanding accountability from the building management.
Khaya Dlamini, the twins' father, said his daughter, who survived the fall, remains in a critical condition.

South Africa’s G20 moment exposes deep cracks at home and abroad
OUR COUNTRY is not in the space it should be in. As a host of G20 we would have loved to be a shining star that had dealt poverty a blow, a place where corruption was dealt with firmly, where children have a brighter future, taps are not only running but are oozing label blue water, with smooth streets, where women feel safe, and children are assured of a meal daily.

Hooray for my English teacher who taught me satire
FOR those pupils that played hooky to catch fish while educators were teaching \"metaphors\" \"irony\", \"sarcasm\", etc, and others who missed my tongue-in-cheek take in The Mercury last week regarding the \"swarms\" of Palestinians who would soon not only invade our free country, take-over all our green fields, set up their throne in New Pretoria, and even shunt all of us \"indigenous\" Indian, White and Black people into a fenced off area in the northern Cape, after the international powers that be justified all of that, by \"just saying\" that the \"Palestinians were always here\" and were, in present-time, actually experiencing a holocaust of their own, back home, so really deserved to be freely commuted here: Excuse me!
