Ekurhuleni Mayor hands out gifts to needy children
With Christmas right around the corner the Mayor of Ekurhuleni, Mzwandile Masina & his wife Sinazo have handed out gifts to children at Bertha Gxowa Hospital's Paediatric Ward.

They were joined by soccer player Simphiwe Tshabalala and his wife while parents of the children say they are happy with the gifts and that some of them will be home for Christmas.
