Since the start of heavy rains earlier this month, many areas around the Moretele local municipality in the North West, are heavily flooded causing lots of damages.

The local mayor Masango Manyike has visited affected areas, such as Maubane, Mathibestad, Mmotla and Makapanstad villages to assess the extent of damages, in order for the municipality to intervene.

However, some of the victims have welcomed government intervention, especially by bringing machinery to drain the flooded areas He says, “More than 500 houses in one village, Maubane are really affected, we are going to send disaster truck to drain the water out of the houses, 5-6 villages have been affected and then we have arranged a temporary v- drain in the meantime so that we can drain the water to the nearby river.”

He says, “You can see there is paving under construction. In the scope of the contractor, there are arrangements to have a v-drain. We have our technical director here, our municipal manager is here. They are still busy with the main stormwater drainages from the other side of the road, which is going to channel the water correctly to the right direction.”
