This may not be the ideal picture of a crocodile but it doesn't mean that its any less intimidating, the bummer that happened in Limpopo (the witchcraft capital of South Africa) is that Crocodiles delayed voters from casting their vote. More after the jump:
A RIVER infested with crocodiles delayed the opening of a voting station in Limpopo yesterday.
The province's electoral officer, Nkaro Mateta, said the station opened at 9am because IEC officials could not cross the crocodile-infested Olifants River.
They had to wait for an army vehicle to take them across to set up the station at Mankele Primary School in Lebowakgomo, which then opened at 9am - two hours later.
"We needed a specialised car because there are crocodiles in the river."
She said the 300 to 400 registered voters for the area were all notified of the different hours for this voting station.
* Another station "on top of a mountain" also opened at 9am because a helicopter was used to get IEC staff there. About 200 voters were registered to make their marks at this station.
Mateta said by yesterday afternoon the IEC was happy with how voting was proceeding in the province.
I would have thought that a broomstick would have been the method they used to get over the crocodile infested river but alas there was a helicopter. I'm canning myself cause this shit would never happen anywhere else but Limpopo, seeing as the ANC is leading in the polls is concerned, maybe Helen Zille should have seeked the help of a Sangoma in the province...
