My tenants have been living in my house since April 2015. I’m concerned they’re not planning to leave and have been dishonest about their intentions. I emailed them a notice to vacate on September 15th, asking them to leave within a month. Should I also send a registered notice by post with acknowledgement? Or can a friend deliver it to them in person since I don’t live in that city?

While an email notice is acceptable, it’s advisable to also send a registered notice by post with acknowledgement due to the lack of legal certainty about email delivery. A friend delivering the notice in person, even if witnessed, does not provide the same legal evidence as a registered notice.
