I travel by foot and taxi to Benoni and I see our dear council is again misusing the taxpayers’ money.
A month ago I was walking from the station down Russell Avenue, where teams of workers were diligently raking and sweeping all the fallen leaves, and I distinctly heard one of the women in the team ask the “supervisor”, leaning against the council vehicle, where the bags were for the leaves.
And his reply was: “There are none – but don’t worry – ‘someone’ will come organise the collection of the leaves”.
So I watched for the entire month, every day, as the neat piles slowly spread back all over the pavements.
Lo and behold this week – the exercise is being repeated!
Aren’t there any “takers” to offer their “tenders” to bag the leaves?
At Caxton, we employ humans to generate daily fresh news, not AI intervention. Happy reading!
