Big smiles all round here, because we are finally back in control of this page!!!

We were extremely upset that this page was hacked and temporarily taken over/ hijacked by a Vietnamese entity on the evening of 14 November and the first thing the hackers did was change the name of the page. Unfortunately Facebook only allows you to change the name of a page once every 7 days, so while we've deleted all their rogue posts, page edits and photos, we will only be able change the page name back to "Soweto Equestrian Centre - Enos Mofokate" on 21 November. We just have to be patient!

Many thanks to the pages Support team for helping us rectify this issue so quickly 🙏🙏🙏
