Ongoing protests in Eldorado Park, where residents claim they have been neglected by political parties, have led to the birth of the YesEldosAgain community movement.
After deadly violence in Eldorado Park during the past few months, members of the community camped outside the Eldorado Park police station for more than 40 days in demand of justice.
“The PA was ready to leave the DA coalition months ago already due to the neglect of Eldorado Park taking place in the DA-led coalition,” the PA’s deputy president, Kenny Kunene told“This is absolutely not true,” he said. “The PA is more interested in positions and power for its own sake, and not to serve the people. When they couldn’t get the positions, they sold to the highest bidder, in this case, the ANC.
During her visit to Eldorado Park, Phalatse called for a multipronged approach to the challenges facing the area and said the City of Johannesburg could not do it alone. Kunene denied that the leadership squabbles in Eldorado Park had distracted the party from its primary goal of providing services to the community.
