Sinkhole in Northern Cape

The huge sinkhole in Northern Cape near Daniëlskuil, next to the R31 road, has become a big attraction. For days people have been flocking to this spot checking out the sinkhole of several meters deep and long.

Two OFM journalists, Mark Steenbok and Moeketsi Mogotsi, are presently at the sinkhole which is being described as "dangerous". They gave us an update on the situation and spoke to other visitors to the sinkhole as well as the government on plans to address this dangerous situation.
