The Volksblad newspaper said angry residents dumped a bucket full of raw sewage in the office to protest against alleged nepotism by the municipal manager Sono Mofokeng.

An independent councillor Michael Lentsa told the newspaper the protesters wanted to talk to the municipal manager about the appointment of 10 people.

The protesters threw the sewage in the office when they heard Mofokeng was on leave.

It is alleged that the posts were not advertised.

Residents, councillors and Mofokeng met for most of Thursday in the neighbouring town of Herzogville on the matter.

The newspaper said it was decided the appointments would be nullified, which was accepted by the residents.

However, the dumped sewage was not yet cleaned up by Thursday afternoon, the report said.

MommaC - In Joburg, the nature and conservation offices had the same problem. The sewage system wasnt properly fixed, so all the $h17 started seeping into the basement.

That entire building now smells like a sewage dump. The employees refused to go to work. Anyways, the department didnt just decide to lease a new building.

They are now building a new building from scratch. The employees were told to work from home. Spoke to a connection in the department, nobody has been doing any work for the past two months.

Meanwhile, the rent for the building is still being paid. The salaries are still being paid.
