Today is your last chance to vote - we will close the lines for the Kabelo Thibedi poll at midnight.

Today is your last chance to vote - we will close the lines for the Kabelo Thibedi poll at midnight.

We will announce the results in next Thursday's edition of Sowetan. We had a massive response from readers throughout the country. People simply do not want Thibedi to go to jail.

Sowetan maintains that the blame for the Thibedi saga lies squarely with Home Affairs. For two years Thibedi went to Home Affairs offices countless times to collect an ID he had applied for - all in vain. He held a Home Affairs official hostage with a toy gun out of frustration, demanding his ID. For his troubles he was found guilty and sentenced to do time.

We think it is not Thibedi who needs fixing, but Home Affairs.

Vote. It is your last chance.
