The residents of the Johannesburg Society for the Blind in Regents Park are venting their frustrations after they spent six days without water and now their power has been cut on February 14.

On Sunday, February 13, the angry residents took to the streets and barricaded North Street in Regents Park.

Along with the thirsty residents of the Johannesburg Society for the Blind is Ward 57 councillor Faeeza Chame.

According to Ward 57 councillor Faeeza Chame, they are trying their best to try to resolve the issue.

“I have spoken to the Mayor and MMC, they going to see how best they can assist.”

“The issue is the organisation is in arrears but at the same time, the association of the blind has billing issues that haven’t been resolved and has been going on for a couple of years,” she said.

“The management has shown me some files and nothing has been done,” said Chame

One of the Johannesburg Society for the Blind representative, Hennie Els said those who don’t pay rent have no right to complain, only those who pay rent should complain about the cut of water and power supply.

Chame stated that some of the residents are not paying rent and the amount of which the residents are paying is lower than the amount of a monthly bill.
