Abahlali baseMjondolo Press Statement:
31 July, 2008 – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Khayelitsha – QQ Section, Abahlali baseMjondolo's newest member community, has been one of the most deprived informal settlements in Cape Town: they have been waiting for services from government for the past 20 years. The last 14 years of 'democracy' has been meaningless to residents of QQ Section.

After living so many years without rudimentary services, abahlali (residents) find it very appalling for the City of Cape Town to claim that This City Works for You and the the Western Cape is a Home for All. They have sought to marginalise us and incited devisions between us so that we fight their ANC/DA political battles.
