One of the flood victims Nosandla Sibango have called for swift reaction from government, should there be disruption.
“I am scared because there are people that went back to their houses that were engulfed by water, houses that are still wet. I just wonder if those houses won’t be affected by the strong winds that are expected tomorrow. They will fall down completely now. My five-bedroom house has cracks, hence I stay with neighbours,” she says.
