CAPE TOWN – A group of people is demanding a meeting with Cape Town city chiefs over their continued appeals for services on land they illegally occupied in Khayelitsha.

Authorities are on the lookout for two protests, which are linked, underway in the city on Thursday morning.

A section of the N2 was closed in the vicinity of Khayelitsha due to a demonstration.

Another group of protesters has now arrived at the civic center.

Community leader Mzukisi Molosi said they had every right to demand basic services.

What if the informal settlers don’t get away with it?

“We will not stop until we get what is right for us, which is water and toilets, which is our right.”

Earlier this month, violence erupted in the area that saw three buses and a delivery set on fire.
