Angry M’well residents want to talk to mayor M
NCEBA DLADLA
Little ones get up close and personal with snakes
OTHERWELL residents from Wards 57 and 54 who say they are sick and tired of waiting for houses and are accusing some municipal officials of corruption are taking matters into their own hands as they don’t believe that the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality will ever deal with their housing needs.
Last Thursday evening a group of angry residents from Power line and NU29 went on the rampage and looted about three foreign residents’ shops before setting them alight. According to Motherwell Community Police Forum (CPF) Chairperson Nomawethu Jama, before that, the residents allegedly burnt a Shoprite delivery truck as well as a petrol truck, burnt tyres and closed roads including one to Uitenhage, stopped children from going to school and illegally occupied the flats earmarked for deserving residents on the housing delivery list. “Yes we did. We take responsibility for the public violence. It is our way of calling for municipal attention. We have been calling the executive mayor Danny Jordaan to come and listen to our complaints and he ignored us,” said resident Vulikhaya Pasiya. Continued on page 2
About 30 pupils of the Wabamkela Educare in Walmer Township had the opportunity to experience a snake show by Silvano Recchia (pictured), also known as the Snake Man. Read more about how the little ones reacted to Shikana the albino Burmese python on page 4.
