Alexandra residents are taking legal action against Johannesburg Mayor, Herman Mashaba.JOHANNESBURG - Alexandra residents are taking legal action against Johannesburg Mayor, Herman Mashaba.The protesting residents argue that the structures were built illegally.“The community feels as if the mayor doesn't respect them. We've been trying to speak to him but he won't listen to us. He, however, seems determined to break the law.
“The mayor now wants to compensate for the demolished structures. Does he know how much those structures cost or where those people come from? There are people who have been waiting for houses since 1995/6 here in Alexandra. We want to see whose side the law is on. There was a court order preventing structures from being built. If he compensates these people, it means he doesn't respect the law or the courts of this land,” Mavundla added.
That would've been better not disrupting other people's business. Unemployment is real..
I'm still waiting for them to march in protest demanding answers from the ANC on the renewal project billions!!!!
