Authorities in the Nelson Mandela Bay Metro in the Eastern Cape say the municipality is prepared to accommodate more people who may be displaced due to ongoing torrential rains and floods in area.
More than 2 500 people have been rescued and accommodated at community halls since the heavy rains started in the metro and the surrounding areas.
Executive Mayor, Babalwa Lobishe, says more people may need to be rescued from their homes as the rainfall persists. Lobishe says no fatalities or injuries have been reported so far.
