Pietermaritzburg was a dump long before the riots

“The only reason I live in the city is because it is close to work. The city was in a bad state before the riots,” said Sibusiso Mkhize, who lives in a flat in the city centre. “Some of these things we can do ourselves. There is a lot of damage here and I am proud to see people come out in numbers. I have never seen such unity in the city. I think we will be faster than the municipality if we keep up today’s momentum,” said Mkhize.

This is only one of the ways in which the municipality has been found wanting. It has been placed under administration twice and stands accused of maladministration and gross mismanagement of funds.
