Hundreds of people in Mpumalanga have commemorated Freedom Day in Phola, near White River. Government services were being provided outside the venue.
The celebrations this year come at a time when the country is facing a number of challenges around service delivery and while it is preparing for local government elections.
Thirty-two years into democracy, some residents of Mpumalanga are still complaining about a lack of water and electricity. Residents say an improvement in service delivery is long overdue.
