Will that change the lives of Gugulethu Communities or is just a Political statement by DA? I have seen many Towns changing street names, but the lives of those people in those towns never changed, it actualy change from better to worse. Name change is a waste of money, Steve must be turning green in his crave, seing people suffering and yet money been wasted by changing the Street in his remembrance. Report Abuse

Zille and De Lille should stop patronising people, a National Road or airport, or the Square in Cape town would have been a fitting tribute. Besides, this road-naming must cost some money so why not try and sort out the shacks situation instead?? Report Abuse

Stephen Biko's name belongs in the major streets of our cities and landmark buildings.Nelson Mandela boulevard is at the periphery of Cape Town,while the colonialists names are to be found everywhere in the commercial hub of the city.We do know the psychological importance of names and we are going going to reverse all this nonsense of keeping our national heroes names in the townships.
Furthermore,it is Bull dust to tell us how costly it is to rename streets, our heroes paid with their lives,we have to do whatever it takes to honour them.
We know when decisions are made based on subtle racial notions.We shall never be not appeased. Report Abuse
