[@shintenkai1648]

Looks a 1000% better than 20 years ago when I used to sleep over at my friends house as a kid. Miss P.E so much

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

Yes it's definitely beautiful!

[@sinoxolobooi4448]

Certainly doesn’t. The place has detoriated so much over the last 15 years

[@jabulanithema1467]

This is a nice township. If the issue of illegal dumping can be resolved, the area will be greater than it is. Watching from Pretoria.

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

Totally agree with you, Motherwell is a beautiful township, should be up there when compared with other townships around the country, illegal dumping in other parts of Motherwell should be banned, otherwise it’s a beautiful neighbourhood ❤. What township can you compare it to in Pretoria? Mamelodi? Thanks for watching😊

Brings back warm fuzzy feelings, I stayed in Nu2 for 1year with my late mom and dad. I miss PE so much😢. You passed by the house we used to stay in my gosh my heart😢

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

Glad that I brought the warm fuzzy feeling and evoked some good memories from the time that you stayed in PE, it's still a beautiful place with a lot of friendly people. Please visit again!

[@Spokie23]

@@thegreatafrikanchannel it's really a great place, I was born and raised in zwide PE but that 1 year we stayed in motherwell Nu2, I then moved 2014 to cpt till now but I come every year to visit my family in zwide. I just love this channel makes me feel like I'm in PE lol.

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

[@shameemkhan1802]

Now it changed a lot and looks better. We used to go at market when working to build soccer stadium for 2010 world cup. PE is very beautiful. We stayed at a housing state beside Caltech

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

I agree with you PE is very beautiful

[@alimetodista3459]

Watching from Motherwell, Scotland, does Motherwell have a football club? We have the mighty well (Motherwell f.c), a few African refugees who live in Motherwell started supporting the club, mainly younger folk.

[@SinesiphoNongomaza]

Watching from NU9 . And the dumping site at Spar actually got removed and a fence was put. I think this video didn't catch many of the upgrades and most illegal dumping sites have been taken care of. Anyways i love my hometown ❤(although i moved to greenacres recently)

Beautiful township ❤

NU stands for Native Unit and NY in Cape Town townshiops stands for Native Yard

[@sandileyeki8721]

Born and bred here...eMama

[@dignitygroupkempton4886]

I believe that stand for units

[@scrufhack3]

The concept of Motherwell township looks similar to that of Gugulethu and Khayelitsha in Cape Town.

[@anelisakimbili5329]

NU stands for Neighbouring Units

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

Hi, thanks for letting me know, is it not Native Unit?

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

Motherwell is a township with about 140000 inhabitants (2011) about 25 km north of the Port Elizabeth city centre and is situated on the northern outskirts of the city's metropolitan area. It is separated into blocks called "NU"s [Native Units] (e.g. NU5 or NU8).

[@SBL70282]

​@@thegreatafrikanchannel Its Native Units from the apartheid era,they used to call us blacks, natives.

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

@SBL70282 i think that's correct. Exactly what I read...

[@mariaackeer8982]

[@sakhelekleinbooi9266]

Crime is very high 😢 day and night car hijacking robbery all at gun point we're living in fear

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

Oh okay, thank you for the correction

[@khotsomakuebu1318]

the only problem about watching videos in this channel, you don't interact with the locals, you just doing driveby and that's very limiting in terms of gaining information about the place, its history, the lifestyle, the costs of things and landmarks and stuff... try to be more interactive..

[@pyro4853]

No sir it's not the wind that causes the litter 🤣. It's the people that just dump their dirt anywhere.

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

You are probably right😊

[@luthovellem865]

True

[@peterapril2147]

That's true but is it really the only thing you can comment on

[@AsandaGrootboom-h6m]

NU stands for number unit

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

@@AsandaGrootboom-h6m i thought it was native unit?!

[@yongamamabeni4428]

Nu stand for neighboring unit

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

If you Google the meaning of NU, it comes as Native Unit? So which one is correct?

[@gideongouvs5559]

You mean PORT ELIZABETH

[@mojalefamzananda4511]

thats Native Units🧐

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

Awesome 😊 thank you

[@pyro4853]

Isn't crime really bad here?

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

I would like to believe that there is crime there just like any part of SA.

[@julianatanda2680]

Crime is everywhere

[@BabalwaNgcolo]

Number Unit

[@thegreatafrikanchannel]

Okay noted, some say “NU” stands for “Native Unit” not sure if it’s also correct.

Motherwell kas'lam... we have 1 big complex that consists of shoprite; boxer store; clicks; hungry lion; kfc; cash build including standard bank; absa; nedbank; capitec; fnb; old mutual branches & etc. We also have a test driving center and a mini complexes such as Spar and boxer stores which makes 2 boxer stores in Motherwell. We have 3 KFC franchise and lots of different petrol stations such as Shell; Sasol; Engen & etc. 2 police stations including 1 court of law and home affairs offices. 2 active sport field in front of 469 bar lounge at nu2 and the other is located in nu9. We have 4 community halls and the huge one is Raymond Mhlaba sport center with a vandalized swimming pool. This township is huge but I do believe we need an attractive structure or something to be a destination for tourists. @MontanaThePbn
