Breaking local news in Ballito Dolphin Coast
Residents of the illegal Shaka's Head informal settlement are determined to oppose any eviction order granted by the court.
Located near Ballito's entrance along the P445 road, the settlement was established during the Covid pandemic. Today, almost a thousand shacks occupy the land which was initially reserved for a clinic or a much-needed public high school. He said issues in terms of community safety and security are continually getting worse. He said KDM human settlements officials have reached out to nearby residents to record their concerns, which will be presented in court.
Ludziya pointed out that most residents used to rent in Shaka's Head but could no longer afford it and had to find free accommodation to help them cover basic needs. As was the case in Taffeni in Sheffield where dwellers rejected relocation plans, the Shaka's Head settlement residents said they will stand firm in their resolve not to move. In Taffeni, the municipality is now building houses on the land people had illegally occupied and have to include them in the project.
'People in townships often add multiple rooms to their RDP houses, which strains the electricity supply. This problem existed before we arrived,' she said.
