| The
Jukskei river is a ... , I should say, maybe one of
the most famous and notorious rivers that go past, go through
Alexandra. And maybe Alexandra is the only township that has a proper
river that goes through it. But it is so polluted, and so filthy that
it stops being, having the kind of aspects a river should have.
It is
not ..., I do not see it personally as a recreation facility, more as a
menace to society. Because in summer it gets so flooded that a lot of
people die or a lot of houses are taken off by the full, the stream and
... it just creates a lot of tragedy. And in winter as you can see now
it is full of plastic and all sorts of rubbish. And the hope to clean
it up is that its, the people, the shacks will be removed and a proper
banking would be created and the river will become again a resource, a
source for entertainment and for pleasure for the people of
Alexandra. |
