As Mapisa-Nqakula was reporting back to the assembly's programming committee meeting on Thursday after safety concerns earlier this month, MPs called for parliament bosses to ensure their safety not only in parliament but in the parks they live in.
“Our biggest fear is that a grown up knows what to do when they see a snake but a child may be interested and approach the snake. Something that seems mundane to some could be life-threatening,” Mazzone said about “the spate of the snakes that we have seen around the parks”.Mazzone's parliamentary office was recently broken into with culprits stealing soft drinks from her bar fridge, among other things, she said.
IFP chief whip Narend Singh described the proliferation of snakes in parliamentary villages as “a security threat of a different type” that requires serious attention.National Assembly chairperson responsible for iGrace Boroto, said she will be meeting the department of public works next Friday to discuss the neglect of parliamentary villages where the grass was long and not maintained.
“We will be dealing with the matter of safety in the parks in terms of cleanliness, the snakes and other issues,” she said.
