REMOVAL OF ILLEGAL OUTDOOR ADVERTISING SIGNS – PHASE ONE (KLERKSDORP)

The City of Matlosana Local Municipality, through the Marketing and Tourism Section within the Local Economic Development (LED) Directorate, has over the past two weeks carried out Phase One of the removal of illegal outdoor advertising signage within the Klerksdorp area.

This enforcement action is part of the Municipality’s ongoing commitment to uphold the Municipal Outdoor Advertising By-law, improve compliance, enhance urban aesthetics, and ensure fair regulation of outdoor advertising within the City.

The aims of the removal process are to:
• Enforce compliance with the Municipal Outdoor Advertising By-law
• Improve the visual appearance of the city
• Promote orderly and safe advertising practices
• Ensure fairness to businesses that follow municipal processes
• Boost revenue management through lawful advertising permits

Owners of removed illegal signage who wish to reclaim their boards can do so by following the procedure outlined below:

1. Visit the Marketing and Tourism Office (LED Directorate) at the Stilfontein Civic Center.

2. Pay the applicable fine as prescribed by the Municipal Outdoor Advertising By-law.

3. Complete the necessary compliance and application forms.

4. Submit a formal application for approval to erect signage in accordance with the approved zones and specifications.

5. Once payment and compliance are confirmed, arrangements will be made for the collection of the removed signage.

In accordance with the Municipal Outdoor Advertising By-law:

• Removed illegal signage will be kept for a maximum of 60 working days.
• Owners are encouraged to reclaim their signage within this period.
• If the signage is not claimed within 60 working days, the municipality will dispose of it according to municipal regulations.

The City of Matlosana urges all businesses, SMMEs, and advertising agents to ensure their signage complies fully with municipal by-laws before installation.

Our goal is not just enforcement but also forming partnerships to create a clean, attractive, and well-regulated city, enabling businesses to advertise responsibly and effectively.

Businesses are advised to consult the Marketing and Tourism Office for assistance before erecting signage to prevent penalties and removal.

The city remains dedicated to building a vibrant, visually appealing, and economically active Matlosana.

TIGER STILL MISSING
James “Tiger” Tshoaeli, the alleged kingpin behind illegal mining operations in Stilfontein, is still on the run more than a year after escaping police custody in January 2025.

Tshoaeli, a Lesotho national, resurfaced during a police rescue operation at the Stilfontein mine. While other illegal miners were processed by police, he was never formally booked at any police station and subsequently disappeared.

SAPS believe he escaped with the help of four police officers.
National police spokesperson Athlenda Mathe confirmed that Tshoaeli remains at large. “We are still searching for Tiger,” she said.

Tshoaeli is one of about 100 detainees who escaped police custody last year and have not been rearrested. Police leadership recently told Parliament that 284 escapes were recorded by SAPS during the same period.

The four officers accused of assisting his escape - W/O Jack Motlhabya, Menzi Shabalala, and Sgts Ntutuko Dladla and Samkelo Mbotho - face charges of defeating the ends of justice and aiding a prisoner’s escape. All four are out on R1,000 bail.

Tshoaeli is accused of controlling underground operations, hoarding food supplies meant for trapped illegal miners, and subjecting others to abuse and torture. Former miners told Sowetan that he used violence and intimidation to control access to food, deciding who ate and who went hungry.

During the Stilfontein operation, more than 200 illegal miners were rescued and 87 bodies were recovered.
