Sekungaphezu kweminyaka emine abahlali base-Evaton West e-Mkhelele extension 11 esigcemeni se-11 e-Vaal bethi imigodi yendawo iyakhula futhi iyaqhubeka nokukhula.
Njalo ngesikhathi semvula, imigodi iba mikhulu, ibabanzi futhi iyajula.
Abahlali bathi noma sebebikele izikhulu zikahulumeni, akubanga namuntu obasizayo ukulungisa lo mgwaqo.
Ngakho-ke, abantu bendawo banqume ukushintsha isimo ngokushintsha umgodi bawenze ibhishi lesikhashana – ngokwenza isitayela saseMzansi!
Umhlali uZanele Zikalala utshele i-Scrolla.Africa ukuthi ubehlala kule ndawo kanti bekudingeka ukuthi awele umgodi kaningi ngemoto yakhe.
“Ekuqaleni, bengingakwazi ukudlula phezu kwawo ngemoto. Bekumele nginikeze omunye umuntu imoto ngoba bengisaba ukushayela phezu komgodi,” esho.
Uthe le ndawo ayinalo uhlelo lokuhambisa amanzi futhi kuneminye imigwaqo eminingi elimele kabi. “Asinalo ngisho uhlelo lokuhambisa amanzi. Amanzi ama lapho okukhona khona umgodi.
“Imigodi ibukeka sengathi sihlala kwelinye izwe elingenazo izinsiza zabantu balo. Bawukhohliwe umphakathi wethu,” esho.
Ezithombeni ezabiwe ne-Scrolla.Africa, abantu abadala nezingane babonakala bebhukuda ngenjabulo emanzini amnyama.
“Umgodi mkhulu,” kuchaza uZanele.
“Uma lina, amanzi ayama lapho futhi kuthatha izinyanga ukuthi ome”.
UZanele uthe yize engakaze abhukude kulo mgodi, abantu abaningi bawusebenzisa njengendawo yokuzilibazisa nokuzipholisa, ikakhulukazi ngempelasonto.
Uthe imindeni namaqembu abangani beza bephethe nama-cooler box agcwele iziphuzo nezambulela, ukuqhuba usuku.
UNgqongqoshe weZokuthutha koMphakathi kanye neZingqalasizinda zeMigwaqo uJacob Mamabolo ukuqinisekisile ukuthi i-Evaton West ibe nenkinga yemigodi iminyaka eminingana, nokuthi uhulumeni wasekhaya uzokubeka phambili ukuyilungisa.
Kodwa mhlawumbe abantu bendawo sebelithokozela kakhulu ibhishi labo elisha!
UMamabolo uthe umnyango uzoqala ukulungisa imigodi engaphansi kamasipala wase-Emfuleni ngoLwesibili. Ubuye waxwayisa abahlali ukuthi bangabhukudi emigodini ngoba kunengozi yokuthi umuntu angaminza kuyo.
