📢 IMPORTANT UPDATE: OURNEWS LGE 2026 COVERAGE

OurNews regrets to announce that the planned political debates across Raymond Mhlaba Municipality, together with their supporting programmes, will no longer proceed.

Despite our efforts, we were unable to secure the sponsorship required to produce the debates at the professional standard our communities deserve. Our current cash flow does not allow us to finance a project of this scale independently without compromising our existing responsibilities.

Our commitment to helping residents make informed decisions ahead of the 2026 Local Government Elections remains unchanged.

We will therefore offer professionally produced paid interviews to political parties and independent candidates who wish to:

• Introduce themselves to voters
• Explain what they stand for
• Address important community concerns
• Present their plans for Raymond Mhlaba Municipality

OurNews recorded 901,849 Facebook views in the past 28 days, providing candidates with an opportunity to communicate their message to a substantial local and regional audience.

All interviews will be clearly identified as sponsored political content, offered on equal commercial terms and will not constitute an endorsement by OurNews.

Know your candidates. Understand their plans. Make an informed decision.

Happy Birthday, Bhut’ Ayanda Jam! 🎉

When I started OurNews, Bhut’ Ayanda was among the few people who made a deliberate effort to support its growth.

I still remember him inviting me to lunch, paying for our meal and taking the time to ask how things were going. He listened and offered advice. That gesture has stayed with me all these years.

Building a company takes courage, and having someone take a sincere interest in your journey means more than they may realise.

Bhut’ Ayanda, I have never doubted your goodwill towards OurNews. And the kindness you have shown us is something you extend to others too. You have a good heart, and today we want you to know that we appreciate you.

May God bless you with good health, joy and many more fulfilling years. Thank you for your encouragement and for making time for us.

Enjoy your day, Bhuti! 💛
