The recent protests on the SS Erin Road was allowed to escalate because of an old brand of politics along with that great underminer of any government, the WASA.
The SS Erin Road truly runs through Siparia, but the La Brea MP has misinformed the public by saying that the paving had stopped at the end of the UNC constituency, because the same road continues through both the Fyzabad and the La Brea constituencies. It is clear that a lack of good representation along with neglect caused the people to take things into their own hands. And it is not only potholed-filled roads but poor and uncleaned rivers and drains.
WASA has not deviated from being the worst public entity over the years as their contractors will dig the roadways, whether it's just paved or not, and leave it with deep craters as is the case with the SS Erin Road.The action of the affected public has proven that they are much better off representing themselves and should be vigilant whenever WASA comes along to dig the road.
