Durban – Thousands of residents from informal settlements on the KwaZulu-Natal North Coast took to the streets, burning tyres and throwing rocks to protest at the lack of service delivery.
They have also vowed to abstain from voting in tomorrow’s general elections, saying it meant “nothing” to them.
About 5 000 people protested near Nsuze on the R614, between Wartburg and oThongathi.
The protest started at 2am and came to a halt at midday on Monday after police intervened, arresting one man.
Angry shack dwellers said there was no point in voting….
