The City of Tshwane has confirmed it’s in discussions with the Independent Electoral Commission about the dire state of the old Pretoria Showgrounds.
After a five-year legal battle, the Tshwane Events Centre is back in the hands of the municipality. But the grounds are in disrepair and local vendors have struggled as no events have been held at the centre while its ownership has been in limbo.
The City has plans to rebuild the Tshwane Events Centre, which is now dilapidated and vandalised, while thieves have helped themselves to cables and other items.
