Judgment looms on Grahamstown-Makhanda appeal
April 30, 2021NEWS
As the Grahamstown-Makhanda name-change case ratcheted up in the town’s high court this week, Arts and Culture Minister Nathi Mthethwa was described as arrogant in his ignorance of historical and material facts; the name-change objectors as obsessive in the face of the country’s laws and Constitution.
Judgment was reserved in the appeal this week against Mthethwa’s decision to approve the renaming of Grahamstown to Makhanda. The appeal was heard by a full bench on Monday 26 April.
In June 2018, Mthethwa’s decision to change the name of Grahamstown to Makhanda was gazetted.
