The Gugulethu Development Forum says it is sick and tired of the criminal elements preventing the community from moving forward.

Their comments come following a deadly afternoon yesterday, where at least eight people were gunned down. The deceased was attending a traditional ceremony when they came under attack by unknown gunmen.

Chairperson of the Gugulethu Development Forum Lumkile Mzukwa says the latest shooting has sent shockwaves throughout the community and is hindering the forum’s work from getting the area in order.
