ACDP’s candidate responded as follows:
Germiston Olga Makgoba:
“Non-functioning street lights are the first things I will fix. Germiston has a high crime rate and low employment levels. It is imperative that the metro keeps the lights on so that potential muggers, rapists and other attackers are discouraged from doing crime, and that our women have some form of protection.
“Small businesses also need a crime-free environment so they can grow and create more jobs – the added expense of buying diesel to keep a generator going to keep lights on is simply impossible for many of them.
“The ACDP will make a point of raising these issues in every council meeting and following up complaints made to the metro call centre.”
