THINKING OUTLOUD LEWENSKIEKIE

We must hold institutionsaccountable

Maybe todayyou woke up to the hum of traffic, the calls of street vendors and therhythm of everyday life.For me theday begins quietly. But forothers it begins with worry, struggle or uncertainty. March is Human Rights Month in SouthAfrica.

Laterthis month, on 21 March, thecountrywillmark HumanRights Day, remembering theSharpeville Massacreof1960,when policeopened fireonunarmed protesters demanding dignityand freedom. Sixty-nine people were killed. Their deaths remind usthathuman rights arenot abstract ideals; theyare protections between dignityand oppression.However,what dohuman rights look like today?

Look farawayand the pictureisgrim. Thethree-year warbetween Israel and Gazasaw homes,schools, hospitals, nottomentionlives, destroyed. It left us withthe spectreoffamiliesfleeing under relentless fire, children going hungry, traumatisedcivilians living in constant fear.Wholesaleviolations of international law, lack of humanitarian access to basicneeds, shelter andprotections were paraded before us by theworld's media everyday

This is astark reminder that rights arefragile. They are neitherautomatic nor guaranteed. And here at home rights arejust as vulnerablethough the threats may seem quieter

Last week, FinanceMinister EnochGodongwana delivered the national Budget Speech. Numbers,projections, allocations, it allsounded distant.However,each rand has consequences. Funding decisions determine whether clinics have enoughmedicine,whether police patrolsreach our streets, whether families finally get aroof overtheir heads. Everyline of abudgetaffects whetherrightsare realised or remain promises on paper.

.. RIGHTSAREFRAGILE. THEYARENEITHERAUTOMATIC NORGUARANTEED.

Isee it.A nurseinKhayelitsha attends to patients in a clinic with long queues and limitedresources. Ateenager in MitchellsPlain takesovercrowded public transport to school, wheretextbooksand supplies are oftenscarce. AfamilyinMarikana, Philippi,awaits housing, while informal settlements expand. On astreet cornerin Wynberg, ahomeless man reads alibrarybook, finding aquiet moment amid thenoiseoftrafficand passersby. Adeliveryrider navigates busyroads, earning aliving whilehoping forbasic protection from accidents or theft.Theseare not statistics. Theseare human rights in practiceor, sometimes, in peril.

Human rights arenot abstract.Theyare livedand are universal. Freedom of expression matters even when opinions areuncomfortable. Theright to protest exists even when it disruptstraffic. Dignity applies to everyone, even those societywouldrather ignore. Yetthese rights arechallenged dailybyinequality, povertyand neglect. Cape Town reflects the contradictions of South Africa itself.Breathtaking beautyco-exists with entrenched inequality.Pristine suburbssit alongside informal settlements. Modern infrastructurecontrasts withcommunities struggling forbasic services. Opportunityoften depends on wheresomeone is born. Safety,education andhealthcareremain privileges forsome, whileothersare denied their rights. Human Rights Month shouldchallengeus to confront thesecontradictions. Arewebuildinga society where dignityisrealfor everyone,oronlyfor those withmeans? Arewewilling to ask uncomfortablequestions about inequality, neglect,and government accountability? Can we protect the rightsofthe most vulnerable even when it is inconvenient? And hereIsit with an uncomfortable truth; rights aremeaningless if we do not live them in our communities.

They aredefended in the decisions we make,inhow we treatour neighbours, and in theactions we take when we seeinjustice. Human rights aretestedboth in thestreets of Cape Town and in the bombed-out buildingsofGaza. Whetherthe threatiswar,poverty, or neglect,the principleisthe same: everypersondeserves dignity, safety,and opportunity

As we walk toward 21 March partner,the challengeis clear. We cannot simplyremember Sharpeville.Wemust act.Wemust speak to our neighbours, question our leaders, and holdinstitutions accountable.

We must walk the streets with empathy, witnessthe strugglesaround us and challengepolicies that leave peoplebehind. Human rights arenot inherited; theyare defended, livedand chosen, again and again.

Andaswemove through this month, letuswalk together in memoryofthe past,but in commitment to the present.Dignitybegins wherewe stand -NAMHLA MONAKALI

Aggressivedog terrifies park visitors

Ivisit LeadvilleDog Park in Sunningdale everyday.A dogschool thereislinkedtoalocal trainingcentre. They allowa dog walker to walk alarge Africanis dog,wearing amuzzle, freelyamong other friendly dogs.I do notapproveofthispractice. Even though the dog maynot be abletobite becauseofthe muzzle, it stillaggressivelyattacks other dogs,which is clearlywhy the muzzleisrequired. Unfortunately, this happens everytime thedog is presentatthe park

Ipreviouslycontacted the dog school politelyvia a phone message, as callsare notanswered, and asked

that this dog be removedfromthe premises, as it traumatises both thedogsthatare attacked andtheir owners. On Monday, aWhippetwas attacked, andthe ownerwas extremelyshaken. She hassincesaid that she does notwanttoreturn to the park Iunderstandthatthe intention maybetosocialise this dog, but Ibelieve that attempting this with a fully-growndog that consistentlydisplaysaggressive behaviourina public dog park is inappropriateand unsafe Duringthe incident, Ishouted at the walker and askedher to leavethe park.

Rising ratesput Cape Town’spensionersatrisk

As Cape Town heads into the 2026 municipal election, acrisis is unfolding quietlyinplain sight.Pensioners arebeing forced from their homes becausemunicipal rates andservicecharges areskyrocketing, while their fixed retirement incomes remain stagnant,which is furthernegatively impacted by the current deteriorating economic climateand lowgrowth and inflation rates in SouthAfrica.

Much of the City’sIntegrated Development Plan (IDP)budget prioritises subsidies forindigent residents andservices to informal settlements —includinghouseholds that makelittleornocontribution to municipal rates andtaxes.

Whilethis support is important forthe needy,the consequence is that long-term homeowners, many of them elderly,are left shoulderingthe bulk of the City’s revenue needs. Theresult: ratesthathavebecome unaffordablefor those who builtthiscity.

This is not just afinancial issue— it is aconstitutional andmoral one. Section 10 guarantees dignity, Section 26 the right to housing, andelderlycitizens have aright not to be economically displaced from homes theyworked decades to secure Politicalparties, take note:pensioners and longterm homeowners areapowerful,significant,and engagedvoting bloc. How the Cityand political parties address this

imbalance,through rebates, income-linked rate caps, or deferred paymentschemes to protect elderly homeowners from economic eviction, willdefine their commitment to fairness andresponsiblegovernance.

In addition,the law already recognises the need for relief.The localgovernment: Municipal PropertyRates Actspecifically allows municipalities to implement measures to assist pensioners and vulnerablehomeowners. TheOlder PersonsAct likewiseemphasises the dutyofthe statetoprotect the well-being and dignityofolder citizens. Yetagrowing number of pensioners fall through the cracksofexisting policies.

ThecurrentCityrebatesystems rely on rigid income thresholds that excludemanymiddle-classpensioners who live on modest retirementincomesbut appear too“wealthy” on paper to qualify forassistance

Thesystemeffectivelyassumes that propertyvalue equals financial capacity—anassumption that is demonstrablyfalse formanyretirees.

Cape Town’spensioners who builtthis citydeserve to ageina placewith security, dignity, andrespect Anything less is afailureofgovernanceand leadership
