Premier must act decisively over Four Seasons Hotel invasion by MK Vets
14 June 2021
The Democratic Alliance (DA) today calls on KwaZulu-Natal Premier, Sihle Zikalala, to personally intervene following the recent invasion of Durban’s Four Seasons Hotel by MK Veterans (see here).
The DA’s appeal comes after newly-appointed Human Settlements MEC, Jomo Sibiya, assured members of KZN’s portfolio committee that the issue of housing for MK Vets was under control. Clearly this is not the case.
While the DA is saddened to see people sleeping outside in harsh winter conditions, acting outside the law is not the solution.
Regrettably, the current situation at the Four Seasons Hotel is the result of an accumulation of a host of errors by the ANC-led government, which have now led to an unfortunate and unnecessary problem.
