In an informal settlement in the Northern Cape... Tannie Nellie Frans, an elderly woman whoโs been living in the area for over 50 years, waits for promised government houses to be built across the road from her home. Her community has also been promised a new school and a hospital, something theyโve needed for years. Despite repeated promises, Tannie Nellie hasnโt seen a single contractor on the site. But in this province, unfulfilled promises are a regular feature of residentsโ complaints and even the capital, Kimberley, hasnโt been spared. Government has neglected the water system for decades and national funding has been misused and mismanaged by both provincial and local governments. Carte Blanche continues its election coverage in this forgotten part of the country.
