Heavy rains hit Mahikeng outskirts
More than 100 people were moved from their homes to seek shelter at nearby churches as their homes are flooded.
Easter weekend became a nightmare for residents on the outskirts of Mahikeng as rains wreaked havoc in many parts of the country, and also hit the communities of Brooksby and Lombardslaagte outside the North West capital.
The Mahikeng Local Municipality has declared these disaster areas, with municipal spokesperson, Jonny Nkoane saying they are "mobilising resources to go and assist residents, and the Municipality will do everything possible to relieve the communities from this distress situation."
Nkoane added more than 100 people were moved from their homes to seek shelter at nearby churches as their homes are flooded.

Meanwhile, flood-ravaged KwaZulu-Natal was hit by more rain Saturday after the deadliest storm to hit the country in living memory killed nearly 400 people and left tens of thousands homeless.
Floodwaters engulfed parts of the southeastern coastal city of Durban this week ripping apart roads, destroying hospitals and sweeping away homes and those trapped inside.
Emergency services in the southeastern KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) province, where Durban is located off the Indian Ocean coast, were on high alert.
