MTHOKOZISI KHOZA: "I think it's a bad situation. People should be willing to give more to those in need."
THE RECORD spoke to the public about their thoughts on beggars at robots. Here’s what some community members shared.
CYNTHIA DUTTON: “These people should be taken off the streets. They are a danger to drivers who could hit them, especially at night.”
STANFORD NKQAYANA: “I think it’s a sign of a lack of discipline in our time. There are jobs but these people have chosen to rather beg than work.”
WAYNE ESTMENT: “We need someone to look after these people. Just giving them money is not enough. More should be done to give them opportunities.”
LORRAINE LAWSON: “I don’t think we should give them money. This only encourages them to beg and creates a dangerous environment for drivers.”
