WATER CRISIS A RESULT OF LACK OF POLITICAL WILL – BOSA
“The cost of housing to those who live in Johannesburg, Tshwane, and Ekurhuleni is unjustifiably high. Young families and recent graduates can barely afford to live close to where they work,” said Hlazo-Webster in her acceptance speech.
The deputy leader said the current water crisis resulted from the government’s lack of political will to resolve it.
“It is the outcome of a government either indifferent to the impact of the lack of reliable water supply to its citizens or lacking the political will to do something about it.,” said Hlazo-Webster.
“The current government has been corruptly failing to provide affordable housing while at the same time giving abusive property developers approvals and support to build in Gauteng,” she said.
