The purpose of the campaign was to address GBVF and distribute pamphlets. The campaign was graced by the presence of the Govan Mbeki Municipalities chief whip, Clr Mapike Mtsweni, and his office.

“We were requested by the community to focus more on informal settlements to address these problems,” said Mtshweni.

She said about 150 community members were addressed, and 100 pamphlets were handed out.

“All complainants from the community were noted, and follow-up will be made accordingly,” said Mtshweni.
