Izinyembezi zesuliwe, kanti nethemba libuyile kulabo izindlu zabo ezakhahlamezeka ngenxa yesimo sezulu basaladengwane bengenamakhaya eMpendle endaweni yaseNzinga.

Namhlanje ekuseni, ubuholi kuhulumeni, uNgqongqoshe wezoKuthutha nokuHlaliswa kwaBantu KwaZulu-Natal, uMhlonishwa uSiboniso Duma, iMeya yoMkhandlu wesiFunda uMgungundlovu, uCllr Mzi Zuma, behamba nobuholi boMkhandlu waseKhaya iMpendle obuholwa uSotswebhu, uKhansela Nonjabulo Ndlovu, bavukele endaweni yaseNzinga ukuyovula ngokusemthethweni izindlu ezingomacekeceke zalabo abasaladengwane ngesikhathi kulimala imizi yabo ngenxa yezinhlekelele ezadalwa isimo sezulu.

Okujabulisayo ngalolu daba ukuthi ubuholi bukhombise ukuba ngomabizwa basabele, nokuba yimilomo engathethi manga, njengoba kusukela bethola umbiko walesi sigameko baluthathela phezulu lolu daba, basebenzisana nangaphansi kohlelo lweDistrict Development Model, kwaqala ukutholakala impendulo, kwaze kwafika nezindlu zesikhashana ezaziwa ngokuthi "olindela" zokukhosela ngesikhathi kusakhiwa izindlu ezihloniphekile eziwuxhaso oluzoba olwesikhathi eside.

Umndeni wakwaNsele nowakwaZuma ugiye waqephuza ubona intuthuko ngamehlo, usuleka izinyembezi, ikakhulukazi njengoba kuthe kuvulwa lezi zindlu, zavulwa zigcwele igilosa futhi zinemibhede engomacekeceke emagumbini okulala. Le mindeni ehlomulile namhlanje ingaphansi kohlelo lokwakhelwa izindlu lwemindeni engu-46, imizi yayo eyakhahlamezeka ngenxa yeziphepho nezikhukhula.

Uhlelo l**e seluqhubeka enkundleni yezemidlalo, lapho bekunembizo yomphakathi khona. Kulapho uNxamalala ehlomulise khona amaqembu amathathu ebhola likanobhutshuzwayo ngejezi lokudlala, wabanelisa ngokwesicelo sabo njengoba bemele kahle isiFunda uMgungundlovu emidlalweni eyehlukene.

Njengoba simazi uNxamalala ukuthi akaconsi phansi kwizaguga zaseMgungundlovu, uphinde wazitholela izibusiso ezintombini ezindala nakumakhehla aseMpendle ngohlelo lwakhe alwenza minyaka yonke lokubahlonipha. Ubaphe uthando, wabonga ngegalelo labo ekukhuliseni intsha yanamhlanje, wabe esebagixabeza ngegilosa kanye nezingubo zokulala ukuze bangawatholi amakhaza kulobu busika. Abawadedelanga benanike amazwi athandwa yiMeya athi: “Inkosi ikubusise,” kwabakuhle kwaba njeya.

Njengoba usuku lwanamhlanje belungolokubungaza amaphrojekthi ezindlu ezakhiwe endaweni yaseMpendle ngokwezigaba ezahlukene, okubalwa kuzo nalezi zabantu abapheshukelwa izindlu, uMeya uNxamalala ubone kukuhle ukuthi ahambele izinkulisa ezimbili, okuyiBlessed Kiddies kanye neCelulwazi, nazo ezidinga ukwelekelelwa, ikakhulukazi ngokulungiswa kwezakhiwo ezisebenzela kuzo.

UMeya uthe, noma kungewona umsebenzi woMkhandlu wesiFunda uMgungundlovu ukwakha izinkulisa, ukuqinisekisile ukuthi kukhona abazokwenza ukuxhasa nokugqugquzela umsebenzi omuhle oqhubekayo. Uthe bazoxoxa nosomabhizinisi ukuze babone ukuthi bangalekelela ngani.

Siyayibongela Impendle engashazwa ngentuthuko eyingqayisivela!
