Congress of South African Trade Unions
in Western Cape says, the Democratic Alliance and Premier Helen Zille are
trying to evict the community of Vaaldraai at Elsenburg, to clear the
Stellenbosch Precinct for future development.
Cosatu’s Tony Ehreinreich says,
many of the community members have worked on the farm in the area and have
rights of tenure.
He said Cosatu will support the
community in realising their rights in continuing their tenure on the farm
areas.
Ehreinreich has said Cosatu calls
for the declaration of this area to be a community upgrading area including
municipality as well as the different national and provincial departments of public
works.
“That We stop evicting people as a way to gentrify many of the areas in Stellenbosch”, Ehreinreich emphasised.
