Duarte told The Citizen in an interview yesterday she grew up there and began her struggle in on dusty streets of the township.

ANC deputy secretary-general Jessie Duarte returned to her home town, Riverlea, southwest of Johannesburg, yesterday and told residents of the poor area to ditch the Democratic Alliance and vote for the ANC next week, if they want real change.

“We have to defeat the DA for us to develop our people. I say that openly. We have to defeat the DA because its proposition is to keep things as they are, so they maintained what apartheid left in place. They don’t develop beyond that,” Duarte said. Riverlea, which lies between Johannesburg and Soweto, is surrounded by mine dumps, which have become a cause for concern to the health and safety of the community.

She knows many residents by name and told of how she and others used to hide behind the nearby electricity mast to run away from apartheid security forces.
