Northern Cape: Broken promises | Carte Blanche | M-Net
𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗻 𝟭𝟮 𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰.
In an informal settlement in the Northern Cape... Tannie Nellie Frans, an elderly woman who’s 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 they’ve needed for years. Despite repeated promises, Tannie Nellie hasn’t seen a single contractor on the site. But in this province, unfulfilled promises are a regular feature of residents’ complaints and even the capital, Kimberley, hasn’t 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.

Premier: "you will even need 500 years", what a clown!
Carte Blance - you guys are incredible! I've noticed a recurring pattern in your series on broken promises. It's striking how every 'premier' interviewed seems to fit the same mould. They're impeccably dressed, and live in beaut houses / work in offices with stunning views (Your Easter Cape episode) , yet falter when faced with probing questions. The audacity to laugh during interviews reveals a disturbing level of arrogance from these people.

Well done, @Carte Blanche! Neutral coverage is what we expect of the media before an important election!🎉🎉❤❤❤ Love your work!
What’s the point of looking sharp(in suits) when you can’t deliver? Fraud everywhere, looks, delivery, telling the truth etc
Still, the majority will vote for the ANC. This is absolutely tragic
One 16 min video sums mostly what has gone wrong across so many municipalities across the country - only changing the leaders may bring some change, but you can't hope the same people will suddenly change anything.

This is so sad and unfortunate when you have leadership that doesn't have vision to inspires it's nation for growth and innovation, but instead just want to play politics and fill up their coffers behind their high fenced homes. It's an absolute shame. South Africa needs leaders who are even willing to work for free to give their future generations an inspiring future.

We were sitting in raw sewage the whole of December, I begged the Premier to send help, and we spoke to the HOD of the Local Government at different event asking for help, but to this day nothing! no one cares, the way we believed in Saul Zamani, its just so depressing and disheartening

The fact that nothing happens to contructors who don't finish the projects are not punished or made to pay back the money buffles me. And the politicians who share the money with them not arrested. We can only go down from here. We have a chance end of months to vote corruption out.

We just got confirmation that you should bring your own black pen when vote. There is people at voting stations who is giving Dual point disappearing ink marking pens. Mark on fabric and other surfaces, ink starts to disappear. Marks can be removed with plain water if desired. Please take your own pens. How much more do we have to take. IEC hope they know all the tricks and trades of these criminals. We please have to receive every voting stations ballad paper before done counting. Should there be any mishiff, this voting will be seen as criminal intent and the date should be postponed.
Johannesburg also has a new fire station, but no fire engines.
Kimberley is my hometown. Have been visiting my dad for 5 years now and every time i visit, there's never water. However, the water flows through broken pipes on roads. Sol Plaatjies is non existing and sad to see the state of a once beautiful tourist town.

And yet we have people who are going to vote for ANC on the 29th May.
Change won't come unless you vote for it!
How do you still vote for these useless bunch!
"they are talking nonsense" a whole premier 😮
These premiers should be asked how do they justify their salaries. To have millions given to a town should be priority, but one can see that time to complete a project is not important. In the mean time they receive their salaries month after month.
