The first of our Election Connection 2016 debates took place at BB Zondani Hall on Wednesday 6 April at 5.30pm.

The first of our Election Connection 2016 debates took place at BB Zondani Hall on Wednesday 6 April at 5.30pm.

A panel consisting of candidates from each of the five main political parties in Makana  – ANC, DA, EFF, UF and Cope – were there to answer your questions in person. We want to help you get the answers you need and to have your say in the process. Next week on Wednesday 20 April our second Election Connection debate will take place at the Recreation hall in Albany Street at 5.30pm- 7.30pm. 

Panellists in the BB Zondani debate were Mzwandile Qotoyi from the EFF, Nozipho Plaatjie from Cope, Mabhuti Matyumza from the ANC, Ayanda Kota from the United Front and Xolani Madyo from the DA. 

The MC will be Ntsiki Mazwai and in the chair will be Radio Grahamstown's Xolani Kondile.

Election Connection 2016 is a partnership between Grocott's Mail and Radio Grahamstown, in association with RMR, and takes the form of a series of opportunities for you, the voters, to come face to face with the people who want to run our City – and who want your votes – so that you can make the most informed decision possible.

We're starting with four "town hall" debates at venues all around Grahamstown, where you can come and join our audience and ask the panel all the questions you want to – whether it's about roads, toilets, garbage, power, corruption or anything else that you're concerned about. 

There'll also be a live broadcast from Rhodes Campus – which is now a ward in its own right.

We're then running a series of live radio phone-ins on Radio Grahamstown – again featuring those who are looking for your votes as well as all kinds of opinion, analysis, debate and information. 

Watch out in Grocott's and listen out on Radio Grahamstown and RMR for more details of this and the rest of our events and programmes. 

Make sure you come along to one of our Election Connection 2016 events or call in and listen to the radio shows – and have your say.
