Mayor Hill-Lewis wishes residents a blessed Easter and chag sameach.

Statement by Cape Town Mayor, Geordin Hill-Lewis

I wish all our Christian residents a blessed Easter and our Jewish residents a happy Passover.

For all traveling on the roads this long weekend, please be safe and drive carefully.

Cape Town proudly celebrates its cultural and religious diversity. As we observe these different holy periods, I am proud to be a resident of Cape Town — a city that represents the best of South Africa’s unity in diversity.

To our Christian residents, may this Easter be a special time of reflection and gratitude.

To our Jewish community, I wish you chag Pesach sameach as you celebrate in the spirit of freedom and togetherness.

At this holy time, we all take a moment to pray for our friends, families, and fellow South Africans in KZN as they mourn those lost in these floods and as they start to rebuild their homes and businesses.

I wish you all a safe, happy and peaceful chag and Easter weekend!
