Another community member‚ who identified herself as Zanele‚ said‚ “I wish you can see the big rats that we have here because of this rubbish that has not been collected.”
Community leader Lawrence Jiba said people are supposed to take their rubbish bags to the streets on Thursdays when the municipal trucks collect. But‚ he said‚ residents take their bags on any day of the week and the bags get torn open by dogs. “It is very sad now that people must live with the stinking rubbish because municipal workers‚ who are hired to collect the garbage‚ are now refusing to take it‚” he said.
Relu said‚ “This problem has been going on for a very long time and things got worse after the BCMM workers strike. To make things worse there’s no plan from the municipality to solve the problem.”
