 The African National Congress leadership and ANC Youth League delegation on Wednesday visited Valhalla Park fire victims.  

 

ANC Youth League Coordinator Mbulelo Memani said during the  visit as part of the delegation led by ANC Chairperson Marius Fransman to victims affected by the fires at the both the shacks and cement homes in Valhalla Park it was clear that in addition to immediate disaster relief, the community requires sustainable assistance which will ensure dignified living conditions and proper houses.

Memani said the delegation to the area saw the need for a resident-led committee elected by the residents at a community meeting on Friday.

He added that this committee will be working with the ANC and ANC Youth League team to solve the immediate disaster management issues and to ensure that proper housing is provided.
