The Citizen|October 22, 2024
The Limpopo government has called on liquor outlets to keep noise levels down so that matric pupils can have peace and quiet as they study for their final exams.

The exams began yesterday with the class of 2024 writing English paper 3 and Afrikaans paper 3.

A total of 882,336 pupils across the country are sitting for their national senior certificate this year.

MEC for Economic Development, Environment and Tourism Tshitereke Matibe said his department, together with the Limpopo Liquor Board, with the help of parents and the police, would be keeping an eye on shebeens, taverns and other alcohol outlets.
