WHEN DID THE BLOCKAGE PROBLEM BEGIN
A helpless Mpho Mokapela, the head of the family, provided background on the crisis which has caused bad blood among his neighbours.
“We are a family of five, including a baby. We’ve been staying on this property since 2007 without any problems. The issue started in 2021 when my neighbour built back rooms and blocked the water passage,” Mokapela recalled.
He said the issue started as a leak when there is a drain blockage or heavy rain, however, in recent months it gradually worsened, as a result, sewer forcing its way into the house.
“When there is a storm, the sewer gushes and fills the house. The wastewater can get up to the ankles and can leave our furniture and appliances soaked in the dirty water.”
