A summit meant to address issues of development in Alexandra was on Monday met with resistance by residents and the members of the African National Congress (ANC) in the township. The summit called by the Gauteng department of human settlements could only proceed with one item - opening prayer - as resistance from the floor began to surface.Mpho Moerane‚ chairperson of ANC Greater Alexandra‚ challenged the programme director asking for the summit not to proceed. Moerane said the summit was not properly constituted as organisations in Alexandra had only received invites on Thursday.“We have asked all the councillors in Alex not to attend this meeting as councillors but as members of the ANC. That is the reason they did not stand up when asked to do so. Some of us who sit in a Section 79 committee did not receive formal invitations‚” said Moerane.He questioned how certain organisations who presented themselves as representing residents had been informed to come to the conference and the legitimacy of their existence.Delegates also challenged the Gauteng MEC of human settlements Jacob Mamabolo for the absence of member of mayoral committee of housing Dan Bovu.Mamabolo conceded that the composition of the summit was not perfect and that the invites had not been sent out properly. But he urged the delegates to discuss issues and change Alexandra's future.Mamabolo also said that he was happy “the issues have been raised. We are addressing that. But let us allow the ARP report to be table and let us engage to change the future of Alex.”Alexandra has been thorny area for the City of Johannesburg after the adoption of Alexandra Renewal Project (ARP) by the three spheres which has failed to change the face of the township.Delegates were expected to receive the ARP report for 2001 to 2015‚ but broke for lunch before the report could be delivered...
