 South Africa says US misrepresented its policies after visa curbs South Africa's foreign ministry said on Wednesday that it ‌had noted with concern U.S. visa restrictions on some people from South Africa announced by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio a day earlier. The foreign ministry added in a statement that ⁠the U.S. announcement aligned with "the mischaracterisation of South Africa's domestic policies by fringe groups". "We maintain that challenges in our bilateral relations with the USA can only be resolved by constructive engagement through state actors on both sides of the diplomatic channel not unilateral acts," the statement said, Reuters reported.

 LASG WARNS ESTATE RESIDENTS AGAINST UNWHOLESOME PRACTICE, DISREGARD FOR RULES, REGULATIONS


 


Lagos State Government has warned residents of government-owned estates against unwholesome practices by some of the residents in disregarding the rules and regulations as contained in their allocation letters.


In recent times, the Ministry of Housing has witnessed reported cases of energy theft, discarding of shared facilities and refusal to honour payment of estate dues. These negative reports are disturbing acts of flouting rules and regulations in some State government estates occupied by allottees who either purchased the houses outright or got the home allocations through the Rent-To-Own Scheme.


The Commissioner for Housing, Hon. Moruf Akinderu-Fatai issued this warning in the wake of an enforcement carried out at Lateef Kayode Jakande Estate at Igando, where some residents were caught perpetrating energy theft by bypassing the installed electrical connections of their flats.


Hon Akinderu-Fatai stated that the Ministry of Housing will not accept situations where residents will choose to bypass and abandon existing infrastructure like water system, electricity and other shared services and choose to litter the estate with individual solutions which distort the estate landscape.


The Commissioner also frowned at residents who broke seals of apartments earlier seized for various contraventions and further warned of dire consequences for such acts. He stated that, though some of the culprits appealed for pardon, the Ministry will not condone this act in any of the state government estates again. 


The Lagos State Government has provided all facilities needed in government-owned estates, the maintenance of such facilities are responsibility of residents through the state government-appointed facilities managers. 


The residents were also reminded that every Lagos State government housing estate is designed to ensure ideal communal living and that resident representatives should be supported to ensure the sustainability of the estate facilities.
