Gauteng residents experiencing horrible sulphide stench
Have you noticed the stench in your area?
Gauteng Weather released an update on the stench many people have been experiencing at the moment, with some even complaining about headaches as a result of the smell.
According to the Gauteng Weather Service: “South Easterly winds point to the stench coming from the Mpumalanga direction, possibly Emalahleni or Secunda. It might be a pollution hotspot due to large industrial and electrical plants in these areas, so smell may emanate from there.”
The unpleasant smell has lingered well into Wednesday.
