ActionSA wants Durban beaches closed following the drowning of 3 people
ActionSA wants all eThekwini beaches closed following the drowning of 3 people at North Beach and the party is now calling for an investigation.
ActionSA is a South African political party established by the former mayor of Johannesburg, Herman Mashaba, soon after he left the Democratic Alliance.
The party cites a leaked report in possession of eThekwini Municipality, alleging irregular appointment of a service provider, Lifesaving South Africa, according to eNCA News.
The municipality uses the Non-Profit Organisation to train lifeguards.
ActionSA claims the lifeguard certificates issued by the NGO do not meet the necessary standards.
Three beachgoers were killed by a wave in South Africa’s coastal city of Durban on Saturday, according to local emergency medical services (EMS). Spokesman Njabulo Dlungele said in a statement published on Twitter on Sunday:
EMS responded to reports of a freak wave that swept a group of beachgoers against the pier causing multiple injuries.

Brazilian forward Vinicius Junior has signed a new contract with Real Madrid that runs until 2027, the Spanish club announced on Tuesday. Real Madrid and Vini Jr. have reached an agreement to extend the player’s contract, linking him to the club until 30 June 2027,” the club said in a statement.
Vinicius, 23, joined Madrid in 2018 from Brazilian club Flamengo and has developed into one of LaLiga’s standout players, scoring the winning goal in last year’s Champions League final against Liverpool. His existing contract was due to expire at the end of this season. Local media reported an extension had already been agreed last year, but it was only made official on Tuesday.
The club provided no financial details, but Spanish media reported the arrangement includes a one-billion euro release clause – identical to those inserted into the contract of several Barcelona youngsters. Vinicius finished sixth on Monday in this year’s Ballon d’Or voting and also received the Socrates award, named after the Brazil icon, in recognition of his humanitarian work.
