Gwaza: Here we live in front of faeces, in front of our kitchen, we cannot open our doors and eat. Flies enter from the door, faeces spill right in front of our yard.
We have an infant who is not living a nice life, an infant who will inhale the filth. We expect that any day it could be said that our baby is dead, because of this filth that comes out in front of our kitchen…
(Walks away)
Here behind me is a toilet, if people are sitting their faeces and their toilets filth comes out, we cannot open our windows so that we can breath clean air inside the house. We cannot do anything, even if we want to sit outside in the shade we cannot, the toilet is leaking outside Video: SIMTEMBILE MGIDI
