A few months ago, we received a message from the Amagqunukwebe traditional community in the Eastern Cape. They fall under the Raymond Mhlaba Municipality. They sent us very heart-breaking pictures of school children crossing rivers where there are no bridges. Non-existing roads where cars are stuck in mud with community member having to pull or push them out. They have pleaded with the municipality and the Eastern Cape Transport Department to assist them, but nothing has come their way. Government on the other side claims to have sent earth moving vehicles to assist in developing roads, but community says that they did not do much.
