Residents of Mfuleni in Cape Town and the local Economic Freedom Fighter (EFF) branch say they will continue to occupy vacant houses and land until they are allocated some.
The two groups invaded land at a new development last night.
The EFF says about 100 people are currently occupying ten houses and plots.
“There are about more than 200 plots here that have been here since last year but the ward councillor here doesn't supply, or doesn’t give these plots to the community members,” EFF spokesperson, Songeze Phahlindlela.
Phahlindlela adds community members “have decided that they must occupy them, because now they are renting as the backyarders from the plot owners, whereas there are free plots here.”
