She said they had been ignored for so long.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We decided to act and organise a deep clean of the walkways. This initiative aimed not only to beautify them, but also to promote community pride and ownership. As we approached Mandela Day we sought meaningful ways of celebrating it, which is how we decided on a clean-up.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resident Sahluko Konco urged the community to be more proactive and take  ownership of civic responsibilities in their area.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He described the campaign as part of nature conservation awareness. &#8220;It is heartbreaking to see our community being disrespected in this way. &#8220;But today we took a stand and showed we care about our community&#8217;s beauty and well-being.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/cityvision\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/walk2_50995.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Concerned Guglethu residents are busy cleaning the walkway that connects NY1 to NY144 in the area.
