On Thursday, hundreds of people under the banner of the South African National Civic Organisation, marched to sub council 10 at the Khayelitsha Training Centre to protest over a number of issues.
They want the provincial government to resume the Kuyasa Retrofit Project, the City of Cape Town to assume responsibility for the issuing of fire kits to fire victims, and better sanitation in informal settlements.
SANCO also wants the City to take responsibility for supplying fire victims with fire kits. Varha said, “We sent many requests to the National Department of Human Settlements for fire kits, but we were not assisted.’’ Ward 99 Councillor Lonwabo Mqina, also the chairperson of Cape Peninsula SANCO, said SANCO asked the City in March last year to put up 1,000 chemical toilets for 7,000 families in Monwabisi Park.
