Good morning Saze Sasha la Ekurhuleni Emandleni Squatter Camp..we having a big problem regarding the waste collection of which am not to sure what is the reason behind that..Where I reside at Emandlen Squatter Camp Wattville Benoni it's in Ward 30 the garbage is not been collected it's been months now..it's is so filthy for the first time in my life I see such a filthy place .what surprises me the most is that stead around our informal settlement the waste is been collected normal ..only us as squatter camp dwellers we not receiving that prevelage.. because we tried to engage with the ward council that before the waste was collected with no issues what went wrong?he's response was the municipality does not have money 🤑..we also tried to engage with the waste department they will only tell you we fix it but still..so I don't understand if the municipality does not have money for only Emandlen Squatter Camp why the other surrounded areas waste is been collected?the likes of Actonville, Wattville and Leachville..it's only the squatter camps that the municipality don't have money surprisingly..our area is in a very bad condition no one can stay in a stinking area like that one because of waste I don't want even want to mention the rates in that area they can eat you alive..or they waiting for the rates to do some damages before they act...this so sad to our black disadvantaged community. What is going on with our councilor's or is it the waste department to be blamed because we tried to engage with the both parties but the is no solution..I call upon the MMC to just come and do the site visit once in your life time and see for your self if that a good condition to leave people in?just once! ..this is a very bad situation we leaving in .no one deserves this kind of situation since we started voting in 1994..since we calling our nation as free! From what?if we can't be provided with the small essential services .
I call upon all Ekurhuleni municipal stakeholders to intervien on our behalf .. this is not life ..this is not how we expecting to be treated as informal settlements dwellers.I cry out loud for help!any help can make changes in our lives and our children..help!help!
