For South Africa's landlords, few situations are as financially damaging as a tenant who stops paying rent but remains in the property. While their rental income has come to a stop, they'll still have to cover rates, levies, insurance and in some cases, monthly bond repayments. But even after cancelling the lease, the way South Africa's eviction laws are structured, it means that a landlord cannot simply remove the tenant or change the locks after months of non-payment.  According to Grant Smee, CEO of Only Realty Property Group, this is why proposed amendments to the Prevention of Illegal Eviction from and Unlawful Occupation of Land Act, better known as PIE, will be closely watched by landlords across the country.

Mpumalanga-Nobuhle Mahlangu from KwaPhahla recently turned to social media to appeal for donations towards a portable oxygen machine after a lung disease left her unable to breathe on her own. Following her diagnosis, Mahlangu was provided with an oxygen machine to assist her breathing. However, the machine came with a major challenge: the gas canister was large and heavy, making it difficult for her to move around and leaving her largely confined to one place. Determined to regain some independence and mobility, Mahlangu made a video that she shared on social media, appealing to members of the public for assistance in raising money for a portable oxygen machine. Her plea has now been answered by ANC Nkangala Speaker Jonas Boshomane, who donated a portable oxygen machine to Mahlangu.
