More than 1 000 people were said to have been left homeless, among them women and children.
Among them was ActionSA, which offered to bring change, and which last week accused the DA-led City of reneging on the promise to relocate the residents to land identified for them.
“Premier David Makhura swore to move the affected families to a safe space as a matter of urgency back in 2019. ActionSA found it concerning that only 192 of the 790 families would be accommodated in the City’s relocation plans, while the rest of the families were to be left in a state of unending limbo; while the DA-led City of Tshwane supposedly cobbled together yet another relocation plan,” said Tau.
He added that they wanted to be relocated before the upcoming elections or they would effectively “punish the ruling party” by voting for opposition parties.
