Nyakallong, Allandrige is abandoned and rejected by the politicians, and does not have a police station.
The police are working from a small building at the municipal officers in Nyakallong. They are working from 06:00 until 18:00. If the residents want to report a criminal, they have to go to Allandrige to do this. It costs R20 travelling to get to Allanridge.
The satellite police station has been closed since the year 2020 because of a shortage of police officials.
This matter has been discussed at many meetings of the community police forum.
How can you fight crime without a police station.
This is unacceptable and a disgrace. Secondly the Allandrige Town hall also has been closed for almost six years. This hall was used to generate money for the municipality by the events that were held there.
The hall was closed for safety reasons which is understandable. What worries me is there are no talks about renovating it.
The first clinic in Allandrige has been closed due to safety reasons.
The nurses are working under a tree from a mobile clinic on the yard of the clinic.
The community with the department of health are looking for a place to operate from.
The Naykallong Hall cannot be used because it has been vandalised, and there is no talk of rennovations.it is time for the residents of Naykallong and Allandrige to stand together and fight against the injustice.
For years now the streetlights in Allanridge have not been working, and the trees are overgrown.
Cables are regularly stolen, and we don’t hear about any arrests. Service delivery os very poor.
Ward 36 has two councillors, but you don’t hear or see them addressing the community regarding service delivery.
No meetings are being held by the councillors.
We the residents of Allandrige are also to blame because we don’t stand together and fight for service delivery.
Next year will be local elections and then you will see and hear from different parties looking for votes.
