People in Cape Town are living in old hospitals because they can’t afford housing. Despite promises to fix this from the government, many still wait for homes.
Elections might change things, but for some, like Noliyema Tetakome, hope is fading. She’s lived in a shack for years and feels voting won’t make a difference.
Others, like Bevil Lucas, see elections as a chance for change. But if the housing crisis isn’t fixed, he fears it could lead to trouble.
The ANC, in power since apartheid ended, faces challenges from parties like the EFF and Rise Mzansi, who promise big changes.
But for people like Faldilah Petersen, living in converted bathrooms, change can’t come soon enough.
