This is just 'a lot of boardroom talk' - Alex resident reacts to SAHRC, Public Protector inquiry

A frustrated Alexandra resident says she doesn't have high hopes for the inquiry which the SA Human Rights Commission and Office of the Public Protector are holding, to look into the community's plight.

Wearing a black T-Shirt bearing the slogan #TotalShutdown@Work, Moloi said residents had been talking for the longest time and nothing had been done for them. "We were asking the officials and government where the law is, and how we, as a community, get assistance from the government in terms of upholding the law," she said.She said illegal activities were now the norm in Alexandra and that the South African Police Service was not doing much to help the situation.

"Right now, as we sit here discussing, someone out there is digging a foundation and building a new house, illegally. What about all those people of Alex who have been waiting for government to build them houses? Are they stupid, or is it because they don't have money?" a frustrated Moloi said.Alexandra is quickly deteriorating every minute - Community leader

Sesona_Ngqaks But wait Cyril was there and promised to build 1 million houses, and fix Alex, for your votes, if nothing happens, hey you voted for corruption.
