The provincial day of mourning for the victims of the devastating storm that hit the Eastern Cape last week is set to start at 11h00 at the King Sabata Dalindyebo TVET College in Mthatha.
The latest death toll is 92.
More than 4,300 people are homeless in the wake of the flooding.
The solemn occasion is dedicated to honouring the memory of all the individuals who tragically lost their lives during floods that wreaked havoc in the province.
Eastern Cape provincial spokesperson, Khuselwa Rantjie, says temporary residential units will be rolled out to the victims.
“Five bodies remain unidentified. The provincial government is still urging members of the public to report any missing persons at their nearest police station to assist ongoing recovery efforts.”
