FACT CHECK: FALSE INFORMATION CIRCULATING ABOUT CAPE AGULHAS MUNICIPALITY

A graphic currently circulating on social media falsely presents serious allegations of fraud, tender manipulation, abuse of authority, nepotism and obstruction of service delivery as allegations specifically under investigation at Cape Agulhas Municipality.

The graphic uses the name and branding of a genuine News24 article published on 4 August 2026. However, the News24 article does not identify Cape Agulhas Municipality as one of the municipalities concerned.

The article specifically reports on Beaufort West, Kannaland, Theewaterskloof and Knysna. Cape Agulhas Municipality is not listed among these four municipalities.

The fact that a genuine News24 article exists does not make the claims contained in this manipulated graphic true. The graphic has taken legitimate reporting about other municipalities and presented it as though it relates to Cape Agulhas Municipality.

Members of the public are urged to exercise caution when encountering information posted by anonymous or newly created social-media accounts, particularly where serious allegations are made without verifiable evidence.

Do not share unverified information. Check the original source before accepting or circulating claims.

Cape Agulhas Municipality remains committed to transparent, factual and responsible communication with the community.

FEITEKONTROLE: VALSE INLIGTING OOR KAAP AGULHAS MUNISIPALITEIT

'n Grafika wat tans op sosiale media versprei word, skep die valse indruk dat ernstige bewerings van bedrog, tendermanipulasie, magsmisbruik, nepotisme en belemmering van dienslewering spesifiek by Kaap Agulhas Munisipaliteit ondersoek word.

Die grafika gebruik die naam en bronverwysing van 'n egte News24-artikel wat op 4 Augustus 2026 gepubliseer is. Die News24-artikel identifiseer egter Beaufort-Wes, Kannaland, Theewaterskloof en Knysna as die vier munisipaliteite wat in die berig bespreek word. Kaap Agulhas Munisipaliteit word nie as een van hierdie vier munisipaliteite geïdentifiseer nie.

Die bestaan van 'n egte News24-artikel beteken dus nie dat die bewerings in hierdie gemanipuleerde grafika waar is nie. Die grafika neem beriggewing oor ander munisipaliteite en stel dit voor asof dit op Kaap Agulhas Munisipaliteit betrekking het.

Lede van die publiek word versoek om versigtig te wees met inligting wat deur anonieme of sogenaamde “burner”- of vals rekeninge versprei word, veral waar ernstige bewerings gemaak word sonder verifieerbare bewyse.

Moenie ongeverifieerde inligting versprei nie. Gaan altyd die oorspronklike bron na voordat bewerings aanvaar of verder versprei word.

Kaap Agulhas Munisipaliteit bly verbind tot deursigtige, feitelike en verantwoordelike kommunikasie met die gemeenskap.
