Visitors’ stinky experience in Seventh Avenue

I just don't understand how the community of Seventh Avenue bear the stink

We, as brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts and many more people from out of town, as far as Durban, Pietermaritzburg, Johannesburg and Newcastle attended the funeral of our beloved brother the late Mr Harry of Seventh Avenue in Forderville, house number 5.

We were very disappointed to see an overflowing and blocked sewer. It was so disgusting. With the stink, we could not sit in the tent.

We came back on November 30 for the memorial ceremony, the stink is getting worse. The blocked sewer is about five meters away from the house. I just don’t understand how the community of Seventh Avenue bear the stink.

We came for the memorial ceremony and we could not eat our lunch. We have also seen people throwing dirt from Eleventh Avenue. I hope that this matter will receive attention. The Ward Councillor must visit the people of Seventh Avenue.
