On our way, we encountered the problem of flooding from yesterday’s rain. We are asking for government to intervene because this looks like a national disaster.
“This is the only route that we know. Now we have to ask for directions. So we are asking for the intervention of the national government,” adds Mothobi.Over five hundred people have been left destitute at Orange Farm, south of Johannesburg following flooding in the area. Johannesburg disaster management says more than 200 households have been affected, among them 170 children under the age of 16.VIDEO: Vaal and Orange River communities urged to move to higher ground:
Tongue in cheek, government to intervene with all the rain and floods...? Good luck with that...
Stop asking the gvt to intervene, they won't. It's time to handle things ourselves. Break your reliance on gvt and you take away their power.

Government cant handle load shedding crisis, how the hell are they gonna handle flooding
