What are things that can cause the service delivery protests​

English

Karolina [17]2 years ago

Answer:

Service delivery remains one of the major challenges

of the 21st century. Service delivery protests are not

uncommon around the world especially in those

countries where public service delivery remains

a challenge. At Yemen in Asia, during 2012, the

country experienced protests coupled with road

blockages by citizens demanding lower fuel prices

and increased supply of electricity. There were

also widespread protests against government and

security officials accused of corruption (Akinboade,

Mokwena & Kinfack, 2014:10). In South Africa,

protesting is not a new phenomenon nor is it a phenomenon which is unique. As early as the 1700's

for instance, during the French revolution, citizens

protested against perceived injustices perpetrated

by the governing elite against the poor and working class (Brown, 2017). Cases indicate that there is

almost no country or continent which can claim that

they have not experienced some form of unrest or

violent protests by citizens. Therefore, citizens have

been involved on service delivery protests because

they were no longer satisfied with the status quo of

service provision or about the undelivered promises

of the elected government. In this regard, South

Africa has seen both, violent and non-violent protests, prior and post first democratically elected

government (Brown, 2017:3).

Service provision is a constitutional obligation in

terms of section 152 of the Constitution of the

Republic of South Africa, 1996, which lay obligations

to the municipalities that the objects of local government are: (a) to provide democratic and accountable

government for local communities; (b) to ensure the

provision of services to communities in a sustainable manner; (c) to promote social and economic

development; (d) to promote a safe and healthy

environment; and (e) to encourage the involvement

of communities and community organizations in

the matters of local government (Constitution of

Republic of South Africa, 1996). Therefore, South

African municipalities are legal obliged to ensure

the provision services as enshrined by the constitution. Mathebula (2014) indicates that most

service delivery protests have been about unfulfilled

objects of local government which often leads to

community members on street demanding for the

provision of services to communities.

Sati [7]

Answer:

The synthesize regarding John brown with respect to two articles are explained below.

Explanation:

After John Brown was hanged on multiple charges surrounding the abolition of slavery in 1859, there were different aspects on him, and there became a debate: on the one hand , people were in support of him and preferred him to be dead. But at the other side , people treated him as a hero.

Although the former claimed to be a murderer and traitor whose purpose was to take down a servile civil war, the other saw an example of true patriotism in him, someone who compromises himself for the liberation and survival of a hated people, that is, his brothers.
