These Inanda families have to walk to a primary school to use the toilet

Mabhuyi Buthelezi, 65, battles to carry buckets of water from trucks to her home in eThekwini municipality's Congo transit camp.

The camp is built from rhino boards, which are now bent and broken. There is only one water tank which has been empty for some time; and the showers and flush toilets in the ablution block are not working. But the tanker started coming less frequently; the sewerage system got blocked up; the toilets overflowed, and after repeated attempts to fix them, the community decided to lock the toilets.Wendy Mkhize from the school said the school also relied on water tanks, and when these were empty, residents from the transit camps must bring a bucket of water to flush the toilets.

eThekwini spokesperson Gugu Sisilana said the City had successfully relocated residents from 29 transit camps into various housing projects, leaving 42 transit camps still to be cleared.
