It only took 2 weeks of me continuously posting about section 27 in the constitution for you to pick it up.
While Cape Town successfully avoided “Day Zero” through strict water restrictions and infrastructure improvements, this does not represent nationwide progress. Millions of South Africans still lack access to clean water, a constitutional right. The crisis highlights inequities in resource management and governmental accountability. Cape Town’s success cannot overshadow the broader systemic failure to address water access for underserved communities. The disparity underscores that local victories are insufficient without addressing the national water crisis comprehensively.
