United Democratic Movement Calls for Urgent Allocation of Funds to Aid Flood-Affected Homeless in Western Cape

The United Democratic Movement in the Western Cape is urging the National Disaster Management Centre to prioritize the allocation of funds to the provincial government. This assistance is crucial for thousands of individuals who have been left homeless due to floods. Bongani Maqungwana of the UDM emphasizes that residents of informal settlements, often neglected, are currently tasked with rebuilding their shelters independently. Maqungwana stresses the immediate release of funds to ensure affected individuals have access to dignified living conditions.
