\u201cDit het gelyk soos tonele uit die Soweto-opstand op 16 Junie 1976 toe skoolkinders teen die destydse apartheidsregering in opstand gekom het, en die polisie moet gewis kyk na derdemagbedrywighede van Atlantis se gemeenskapsleiers wat die gebied polities onregeerbaar wil maak.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S\u00f3 s\u00ea Peter Gomez, gemeenskapsleier van Avondale, wat teleurgestel is dat organisasies met \u2019n verskuilde politieke agenda inwoners mislei en vir eie gewin gebruik het. \u201cEk is teleurgesteld dat ek toegelaat het dat ons mense so misbruik word,\u201d meen hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die drama het Dinsdagaand (9 Februarie) ontvou toe \u201cmisleide\u201d inwoners van Avondale en Saxonsea die strate ingevaar het oor behuising. Inwoners het \u2019n stuk grond op die hoek van Grosvenorlaan en Reygersdal-rylaan vir huise ge\u00ebien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Gomez is agterplaasbewoners \u2019n groot probleem in di\u00e9 gebied, omdat mense reeds jare op die regering se behuisingswaglys is. Hy vertel sommige het tot grondbesetting oorgegaan nadat inwoners van Witsand ook onlangs grond beset het. \u201cOns is nie rassisties nie, maar as Witsand dit kan regkry, kan ons mos ook,\u201d s\u00ea Gomez. Hy s\u00ea Avondale- en Saxonsea-inwoners het moeilik geraak toe Kaapstadse wetstoepassers strukture begin afbreek en dit \u2019n plofbare situasie geword het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Inwoners het strate in die buurt met brandende motorbande versper en wetstoepassers is met klippe bestook. Di\u00e9 inwoners meen die beamptes moet liewer \u201cWitsand se hokkies ook gaan afbreek\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens \u2019n gemeenskapswerker, wat nie ge\u00efdentifiseer wou word nie, het Atlantis groter probleme as behuising. Die werkloosheidsyfer is meer as 50%, dwelmhuise spring soos paddastoele op terwyl bendegeweld ook in die gebied hoogty vier \u2013 mense het egter besef grond is belangriker, vertel hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cJa, ons makeer huise, maar werk en \u2019n inkomste kan bydra tot beter omstandighede vir ons mense,\u201d s\u00ea hy. Di\u00e9 inwoner s\u00ea inwoners word mislei deur ander se verskuilde agendas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Inwoners van Witsand het vroe\u00ebr vandeesmaand meer as 300 informele huise op private grond opgerig en die situasie word tans deur \u2019n private sekerheidsmaatskappy gemonitor nadat die grondeienaar \u2019n uitsettingsbevel verkry het. Di\u00e9 bevel kan egter ingevolge die huidige Rampbestuurswet nie uitgevoer word nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Allister Lightburn, proporsionele raadslid van die wyk, verstaan hy inwoners se frustrasies, maar hy s\u00ea ook geweld is nie die oplossing vir die probleem nie. Lightburn meen ook inwoners word deur sogenaamde \u201cpolitieke leiers\u201d mislei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Fiona Abrahams, ANC-proporsionele raadslid, word rassehaat, voor die plaaslike verkiesing later vanjaar, deur sekere leiers met verskuilde agendas aangehits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens kapt. Liza Munro, \u2019n plaaslike polisiewoordvoerder, is vyf mense weens openbare geweld aangekeer, maar kon nie bevestig hoeveel mense in die gewelddadige betogings beseer is nie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
