Sol Phenduka starts heated debate on social media after claiming there are no shacks in Limpopo

In other stories, Briefly News reported that social media users shared their views after Kaya FM presenter Sol Phenduka asked, in a now-deleted tweet, what can be done to have the rest of South Africa follow Limpopo's example of no shacks.

In the comments section, people highlighted that Limpopo has no shacks because many people from Limpopo come to other provinces like Gauteng for work purposes and build shacks while working hard to build proper homes back home.
