Fix our gravel roads or we won't vote, community tells mayor | GroundUp_News
Fix our gravel roads or we won't vote, a resident of Magwala Village told Mayor Jongumzi Cengani of the Intsika Yethu Local Municipality in the Eastern Cape at a public meeting last week.
The community was demanding answers from the mayor, municipal speaker Khanyisa Mdleleni and Ward 15 councillor Albertinah Rotyi. The meeting, held in Mcungco Village, went on for almost eight hours.'We are going to close all voting stations' "I'm sure you all saw the stones left on the road when you came here, and we asked the municipality to bring a machine to level the gravel road, and we were told to do it ourselves."
A resident who identified himself only as Xolile said:"What we want now is these roads to be fixed before May. And we are not playing – we are going to close all the voting stations because these schools [used as voting stations] are ours and we will close them if we want," said Xolile.
