Diepsloot residents reject response from Presidency

JOHANNESBURG - Diepsloot residents in Northern Johannesburg have had enough of government's empty promises.

They've rejected the response from President Cyril Ramaphosa's office, describing it as an insult.

The community has been calling for the president to come and address them.

Giving him until Monday to come to listen to their grievances, primarily their concerns over high crime levels.

Government says it's putting a team together, including the responsible ministers but residents are having none of that.
