Many Facebook users were concerned after a page posted mansions from an area allegedly not recognised by the local municipality.

The post was shared by a page that shares township news and promoted businesses on their Facebook account under the user handle Kasi Economy.

Mamelodi suburb with stunning homes

The page shared three pictures, one showing a street in Leeuwfontein full of double-story mansions, and two photos showing two homes. The land where the houses are built allegedly belongs to a farmer, who sells plots for between R120K and R180K each.

Mzansi voices concerns over the area

After learning that the area does not have water reticulation and that residents do not receive essential services from the municipality, over 200 people commented on the page's feed, wishing the city would do something.

User @Thabo Matlala said:

"I go past there every day when I go to work. From the info that I got, that land belonged to a farmer, who then divided the land and sold stands to people."

User @Cophelo Solo shared:

"This suburb must be approved with immediate effect."

User @Elijah Sizani added:

"The City of Tshwane should provide services to this place, period!"

User @Sharkt Thabo Radebe commented:

"This is testimony that the land issue must be addressed ASAP... people can't be put in modern slavery through bonds."
