-teemane Youth Protest on the 22-02-2023. (PART 1)
Lekwa-teemane Youth Protesting the Metro fiber and foreverness projects prejudice tendering and labour system that their utilizing in appointing subcontractors and labourers in the project of fiber taking place in their community.
Ever since the project of installing fiber in the Lekwa-teemane Local Municipality started in November 2021, only six,now allegedly 9 subcontractors, were and still are appointed to date... and only 90% of undocumented foreigners are employed by these subcontractors for laboring.
All these actions deprive the youth and the community at large business opportunity and employment.
Wherein the coalition council of Lekwa-teemane Local Municipality along with Metro fiber(Main Contractor) and Foreness Projects (Main-Subcontractor) are aware of all this injustice that was and still is transpiring to the people of this community.
While the Protest was taking place on a Public Road Leading to the Lekwa-teemane Local Municipality Offices , these subcontractors came and "STARTED" Aattcking The Youth and members of the Community. A member of the community was hit by a car by one of the Subcontractors, he opened a case the following day after being assessed by doctors, he only got his case number today 27/02/2023 after he went and complained to the higher authority for it,
After that, the conflict between the two groups started...
A Second Member of the community was assaulted by few members of this subcontractors, at a second scene now, the protest was over and they were in town minding his business, it was more than 3 of them on 1, and these took place quite close to the old burned down town clinic which is situated next to the Municipal office, while he ran to safe his life, they chased him and continued to assault him until he fell down..., he also opened a case of assault and he got his case number within 24 hours,
A third member was attack by this subcontractors, and he ran into correctional services office to safe his life, and he only came out, when the police came and fetched him while this subcontractors where waiting and asking for him to come out...
He was not assisted when he tried to open a case of common assault and intimidation..., he said he was informed by the police that he was not assaulted...and allegedly few people tried opening cases against the subcontractors and they were not assisted, but these subcontractors case of intimidation where opened by the police against some of the Youth and members of the community...
A case of Malicious damage to property and intimidation was opened by this subcontractors against the Youth and Members of the community, and "I" A PERSON THAT WAS RECORDING WAS INCLUDED IN THAT and charged on Friday 24/02/2023, WHICH I KNOW NOTHING OF SUCH, AND I HAVE TIME STAMP SHOWING I WAS NOWHERE NEAR THEM...
Infact their the ones who committed a simple assault and intimidated me and part of that is recorded on the footage I took, my phone was forcefully taken away from me for recording the protest, by the way they found me at that location recording and narrating, and off camera I got a witness...
Tomorrow the 28/02/2023 I'm appearing in court for something I did not do to prove my innocence...
This men took the law unto their own hands..., and they think their above the law, but hey maybe they are above the law because their being favored by it, because they have the previledge of opening cases in town and the Youth and Members of the community don't, so now some of them must spend money to travel to go and open cases at a regional level in the province, while they have a police station in town...
THE JUSTICE SYSTEM NEH..., you must love it...
Don't look down on people.
Galatians 6:9 Do not be weary in well doing for in due season you shall reap.
