Watch: Clr Kade Guerreiro gives an overview of this morning’s events at the vacant land in Klopper Park:
Ward 92 Clr Kade Guerreiro is also on the scene along with SAPS, EMPD and several security companies.
“I do not know what you have been told. This land does not belong to us and thus it is illegal to take this land,” he told residents.
“I will invite the mayor, speaker and heads of the department to address you at the meeting,” said Guerreiro.
He requested the people to leave the area.
