Heavy rains have again caused flooding in Deelpan in the North West and various roads and properties have been flooded.

This comes as hundreds of residents are rebuilding their homes after floods destroyed them earlier this year.“Our houses are filling with water again, even our roads. There is no way that you can cross the roads when you drive a car, even when you walk, you can’t cross. There’s lots of water here,” says one resident.

Meanwhile, Co-operative Governance and Traditional Affairs spokesperson Tsholofelo Mathibedi says they are monitoring many areas that the recent rains have affected, including Deelpan. “We have lost all our belongings. The children’s uniform, our furniture is completely destroyed. As the community, all we are asking for is a suitable piece of land. It doesn’t even have to be houses, if it can just be land at least. We want a safer place than this. Every time when it rains like this we face a similar situation and we do not have jobs,” says Mkhize.
