It’s only a few days into the New Year and there have already been numerous incidents of streets beset by protests.

The hotspots are varied and include informal settlements, major urban centers, major highways, and areas near governmental buildings.

The protests seem to be related to the recent bout of stage six of power cuts and the general fallout from all the load shedding of the past year.
