RDP Housing Crisis: Zimbabweans Occupying Homes, ANC Silent?
RDP Housing Dispute in South Africa: Claims of Zimbabwean Occupation and ANC Inaction South Africa is facing renewed tensions over RDP (Reconstruction and Development Programme) housing, with allegations surfacing that Zimbabwean citizens are occupying homes intended for South African residents. A recent video circulating online shows a speaker passionately addressing this issue, claiming that the African National Congress (ANC) is remaining silent on the matter. "RDPs are being occupied by Zimbabweans. ANC is quiet about it." The speaker's words, captured in a video recorded on June 10th, 2025, have ignited a firestorm of debate. The video shows a large crowd, suggesting significant public concern. While the video does not provide concrete evidence to support these claims, the speaker's passionate tone and the large audience suggest a deeper issue at play. The incident highlights the ongoing challenges of housing allocation and the complex political dynamics in South Africa. Further investigation is needed to verify the claims made and to understand the full extent of the situation. The ANC has yet to issue an official response to the allegations.
