Stop paying rates and taxes, I agree

t's really time to take back Randfontein and surrounding areas.

Regarding Rohann Schoombie’s letter on page 4 of the 1 November 2019 edition of the Herald, with headline It’s time to hold council accountable … the following:

I fully agree and stand by his suggestion that we stop paying rates and taxes.

Also to all prepaid electricity customers, you will notice on your account a charge for ‘Electricity basic prepaid’.

On numerous occasions, I have requested clarity on this charge, but without success. I also suggest that we stop paying this and add it to your rates and taxes that we pay into a registered account every month, as suggested by Rohann.

We must also ask if there are any lawyers [in the community] who are prepared to support this initiative pro bono. It’s really time to take back Randfontein and surrounding areas.

At Caxton, we employ humans to generate daily fresh news, not AI intervention. Happy reading!
