Ibhodi yotywala eMpuma Koloni ibambisene neNdlu yoWiso-mthetho yeMpuma Koloni, kutsha nje ibambe ingxoxo nabarhwebi botywala kunye nabahlali, malunga nolwaphulo-mthetho eGqeberha kwiinzame zokuthomalalisa ulwaphulo-mthetho eNelson Mandela Bay.
Injongo ibikukulungisa ifuthe lolwaphulo-mthetho kumashishini nokukhuthaza urhwebo olunenkathalo kwindawo engenalwaphulo-mthetho. Kwezi nyanga zidlulileyo izinga lolwaphulo mthetho liye laqatsela eGqeberha ingakumbi ezilokishini.
Iinkcukacha-manani zolwaphulo-mthetho kweli phondo ezikhutshwe ngeyoMdumba, zibonakalisa ukuba iNelson Mandela Bay ibe negalelo elikhulu kulwaphulo-mthetho olwenziwe kweli phondo phakathi kweyeDwarha ukuya kweyoMnga ka-2023.
