Other open toilets saga in free State

I find it very bizarre and disappointing that the same ANC who were complaining about people of Makhaza leaving without proper toilets, within a month Cape High judge Nathan Eramas ordered the DA lead government in the Western Cape that it was inhuman of people used bushes to reveal themselves than they must build enclose toilets for Mkahaza residents.   

ANC spokesman Jackson Mthembu told journalists yesterday that the party had evidence that Luthuli House didn’t know there were open toilets in Moqhaka municipality and his the party would take action. I don’t accept that unnecessary excuse and provincial government of Free State and municipality should take fully responsibility of the open toilets in Moqhaka.

A fourth night ago City Press reported about the matter on the more than 1 600 open toilets and approached him for comment and they declared.

The DA laid a complaint with the South African Human Rights Commission in September and asked for updates twice when the commission appeared before the justice portfolio committee in Parliament.

I’m card carrying of the ANC, but they keep on making silly mistakes and DA capitalise with those mistake. It for this reason ANC, we lost the Western Cape to DA government and we do not seen to learn from our own mistake. Thousands of people left the party to form COPE and other comrades joined DA, UDM etc.  We are going to Local Government election for goodness sake such thing should happened at all in the hand of our people.

I mean our own Youth League recently took the DA-led City of Cape Town council to court for leaving toilets in Makhaza unenclosed.

The DA and the ANC have since used the toilet issue to attack each other in the lead up to next Wednesday’s local government elections. When people start toyi-toyi or protest burning tyres on the road for basic service delivery and clashed with police, our government turn a blind eye accused people of being intolerant. It’s their constitutional rights to march to government departments, when the service delivery is not forth coming.       

I condemn open toilets. It’s inhumane.
