Didn't you hear what Kenny said last time... it's the NGO's that protect them by taking the city to court for trying to evict these people so basically they were paid to do so...but ever since the fire they can't do that now

No, what has to be addressed first is the solution, removing them now. We can later address how we got here so as to ensure that it doesn't happen again.

I'm in the Staes and my mom was from Jo'Burg. When I was growing up in the 60s and 70s we used to travel to South Africa every few years to visit the relatives. It sure was a great place back in those days.

100% agree with this person. Money should not go to criminals. If people can pay a rent, they have to accept that offer from the government. If not, they have to go to shelters. If they are illegally present in SA, they have to bear the responsability of their acts. Simple.

Who owns the building? Why would the city collect revenue unless they own the building? I understand that people can’t just take things like that but not sure what he is talking about: the condition of the building is such that it must be declared inhabitable.🤷‍♂️
