A resident of Saaiplaas at Virginia in the Free State has lamented her 18 years of struggle while living in a house surrounded by sewage.
Dikeledi Mokhosi says the situation has remained unchanged despite repeatedly reporting the issue to Matjhabeng Local Municipality.
Mokhosi says her family constantly suffers nosebleeds and that one of her children died in 2022 from asthma which she believes, was caused by the prevailing conditions.
