ANC branch condemns illegal grabbing of land happening in Road Reserve, we like to warn those who are doing this criminality to stop.
Also encourage our community to reject such act of criminality and stop funding criminals who in turn demand large sums of money to allocate a illegal stand. The ANC condemns illegal land invasion, viewing it as criminal acts that disrupt public order and service delivery.
While we acknowledge the dire need of housing, ANC in ward 42 believe illegal grabbing of land often disadvantages those desperately needs housing by extorting money from them. Furthermore enables those on the back of housing list jump the queue. We believes people who still not yet re-blocked should be the first to be assisted.
Currently through our Ward 42 Cllr we are busy with MMC of Human Settlement regarding land that will accommodate all people who still need to be re-block, this illegal grabbing will delay any progress towards making sure people get to be re-block.
ANC in ward 42 support robust action, including use of courts and police, to evict unlawful occupiers and to prosecute those involved in facilitating invasions.
We call on all law abiding citizens and community to reject this provocation by people who act like they care while they’re known as Community Hustlers who hustle through pain and vulnerability of our community.
