Joe Nkuna, from Theresapark in Akasia, said TMPD officers had given him until Tuesday to remove the cabbages or be charged.
Joe Nkuna planted mielies, pumpkin and other crops at a nearby park after being granted permission by the site's manager.This is the warning a Tshwane resident was given after the city’s metro police department paid him a visit at his home on September 9.
“On Thursdays, the recycling guys get food from my bins. I leave vegetables there for them and I leave a note to say they must take one and leave for others.Things changed on September 9 when two Tshwane metro police officers visited his home. Nkuna said he was informed there was no such bylaw prohibiting him from having vegetables in front of his yard.
“He didn’t even greet us and just told us to sit down. I realised this thing is not going to go well.” “If metro cops come tomorrow and tell me to chop the cabbages, I have no appetite to fight them in courts because there is more to life. I will remove it. My wife is not happy about this thing, but I have no appetite to fight.Tshwane MMC for community safety Karen Meyer confirmed a complaint about Nkuna’s vegetable garden was received.
