Cape Town has been hit by heavy rains and severe flooding, but the real storm is happening online. Social media is flooded with claims that the Democratic Alliance is responsible for the damage, with users pointing to areas like Dunoon as evidence of failed governance. But is that actually true?
In this episode, we break down the facts behind the Cape Town floods and expose how misinformation spreads during crises. From viral posts mocking Helen Zille to claims about poor infrastructure, the narrative being pushed online is far more complicated than it seems.
One key point being ignored is the historical development of areas like Dunoon. Informal settlements in flood-prone land did not appear overnight, and the governance timeline matters. The Democratic Alliance only came into existence in 2000 and took control of Cape Town years later, yet many of these communities were already established long before.
We also examine the role of the Prevention of Illegal Eviction from and Unlawful Occupation of Land Act, often referred to as the PIE Act, and how it impacts the ability of authorities to respond to illegal land occupation. The law requires due process and alternative accommodation before evictions can take place, making rapid intervention extremely difficult, especially in large-scale settlements.
Another overlooked factor is local political control. Despite the broader narrative, certain wards, including areas like Dunoon, have recently remained under the control of the African National Congress, raising questions about accountability at a more local level.
Flooding in Cape Town is not a new phenomenon. Like many cities around the world, extreme weather combined with urban expansion creates challenges for drainage systems and infrastructure. However, building in high-risk flood zones significantly increases vulnerability, and that reality cannot be ignored.
This episode separates fact from fiction and challenges the viral narrative surrounding Cape Town’s floods. If you’ve seen the posts, the memes, or the blame game, it’s time to look at what is actually happening on the ground.
