 “No electricity, no vote,” South Africans threaten to shun ruling party ANC Residents in Katlehong, a township outside Johannesburg, have resolved to boycott South Africa's upcoming local elections on November 4 due to long-standing failures by authorities to provide basic services like electricity. For over 20 years, around 180 households in the community have relied on illegal electrical connections pulled from neighboring areas to power their homes. Angry over the lack of formal grid infrastructure, residents are directing their frustration at the ruling African National Congress (ANC). "We have made a collective decision: no electricity, no vote," said community leader Lesiba Rankapole, 59. "We know it is illegal, but we had no choice because we cannot live without electricity. Our children cannot progress without electricity." "I was born ANC, but today I do not want anyone to tell me about the ANC because I am suffering," added 57-year-old resid...

MANCHESTER UNITED ARE SET TO PAY HARRY MAGUIRE £10M PAY-OFF TP LEAVE THE CLUB THIS SUMMER.(PHOTO).


Manchester United are set to pay Harry Maguire £10million pay-off to leave the club this summer.

 
Saturday's FA Cup final is likely to be Maguire's last game as a United player with the 30-year-old captain set for a place on the bench against Manchester City at Wembley.
 
Manchester United paid £80m for Maguire to sign him from Leicester in 2019, but he is now valued at closer to £30m due to his age and the fact he is two-thirds of the way through a six-year contract.

 
Maguire has another two years left on the £190,000-a-week deal, and it's anticipated that he would earn only half that amount at a new club - leaving United to foot a £10m wage bill to get him off their books.

 
England manager Gareth Southgate warned last week that Maguire's lack of first-team football at United cannot 'continue forever' if he wants to hold down an international place.
 
And Ten Hag spoke about the player's predicament on Monday, admitting 'that no-one would be happy with this situation - he is not as well'.
 
The United boss says it's up to Maguire to make a decision about his future, and club sources echoed those comments on Wednesday night. 
 
Maguire is one of a number of players facing an uncertain future at United after the Cup Final with question marks hanging over Anthony Martial, Fred, Scott McTominay, and Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
