Black is Soot, Gutted and Derleleling The residents of South Africa Building in Central’s Central Building
Sometimes Office Block, the 1950s structure in the Marshalltown area was abandoned and taken by a few more people who needed home.
One of those was Vusi Tshabalala, who shook his head in a skeptical as he remembers the way of the Blaze this time by the end of August at night.
“Fire seemed to go out of the area,” says the 45-year-old meeting he tells BBC with the melanchoclic voice, rasppy from the tunnels.
Mr Ntabalala was sleeping on the third room on a five-story building, where he shared a place where he was with my brother.
They woke up the flames, they managed to avoid covering wet blankets and run into darkness and look back behind.
“Since we were running some wounded, because when they fell down, they couldn’t go back. People flee on them. I thank God to go out without any injury.”

Visiting hours after burning, President Cyril Ramaphosa called “the calling call to begin coping with housing in the inner city”.
“We need to find effective ways to cope with housing issue,” he said.
But two years on, Mr Ntshabalala and many others have not received eternal home.
First he was moved to Roettenville, 5km (three miles) south of Marshalltown, but he said he left because he could not find work there.
Next, he tried a manufacturer of Denver, 6km in the east of the extension building, where some survivors had been placed – but said the bodies forced him to go.

At that time, he lives in the shadow of his former home, where other residents of Tsoso building have been in illegal areas known as Emshosei.
Made by metal and combined wood, frames full together – and a few meters, some people ever set tents against the wall of the transgressor.
The road is dirty and citizens tell us that poor water is poor. During the summer rain place the water is filled with water and is full of waste.
But Mr Tshabalala, currently working in a nearby, living place here deserves: “I have come back because at least here we find jobs.”
He blames the authorities unemployed not enough to support the Fire Fire: “No one wants to know where the calamity lives.”
“I heard gunshots
Some survivors have stayed in the camp and set them in Denver – albeit this does not mean they are happy.
“The place is not safe,” Josoba was looking at 29 years old.
Children play between shelters of a temporary compound metal shelter where women do and to clean up when we visit. There are a few of the best toilets and 12% of the pimpapes that are located here.
Biyela, who works as a police volunteer, explains how he was shot at the beginning of the year as he slept in his home.
“I heard firearms. Then I had a bullet. I don’t know who shot me but some boys were fighting outside,” said, trying to hold back.
The bullet came into the wall and smashed him in the waist. Doctors told him that they tried to remove it could cause further damage.
He has covered the leaves of the remainder of the wall with masking tape: “Sometimes when I see the letters, I cry because I didn’t expect this to happen to me in my life.”
Biyela wishes to leave camp but cannot afford a private rent, as her devoting role is paying less.
He wants the authorities to find him as he has been told that the camp is only a temporary solution, but the two years continues to know when he will go.
“If the government has gone up after six months as they trained, I may not regret it. But I suspect because it is two years.
“Now when it is cold, I can’t go to work because my wound is painful.
Thanks to security problems, he sent his three-year-old daughter, with a nightmare, living with her grandmother in the province of KwaZulu-Natal.
“I am very scared. They said they promised us to put gates at the door door but no gates. Whoever can go here.”
Camp citizens say they were killed for three people since they arrived in Denver: stabbed, and one was beaten and died and the third shot.

The BBC has contacted the City Mayor Office to question why the survivors of the fire had been not yet two years but they have no answers to this question.
Nomvulo Zondo, lawyer and director of Socio-Economic Medied Economy of The South Africa (Seri), a Human Rights Organization Based on Johannesburg, says it was a struggle for temporary emergency.
He explains that in accordance with the National Housing Policy The State must receive permanent residence for those who are fired or victims of being able to accommodate them.
“Generally, that does not happen. Besides any inexpensive area of accommodation and without a program of provisional service, people obviously say they will leave their temporary houses,” said BBC.
There seems to many designs in central Johannesburg that can provide eternal households, but developers desire to undo them and charge more than many.
“At present, it brings to private market, no space for the poor,” housing lawyer said.
There is a certain hope for future improvements.
South Africa hosted G8 leaders in November, Ramaphosa ordered that the Johannesburg neighbors cleaned before the gathering.

That was March – and one focus had to be attractive city buildings.
In one text of the city of Mashalltown is identified as one of the areas that will benefit from investment to ensure “cleaning roads, economic conviction”.
Johannesburg will be “a place where Africa’s strengths, innovation, and a total attendance in the world”.
But it seems like it happens that Zondo is Zondo Tamondo will take lasting time.
“The G20 is only two months. At that time, it is not possible that the dedication of the Presidential influence is to improve G20 and ensure that there is another rate,” he said.
In response to the question of why the area was not renewed as promised, the Mayor office told BBC that the project would continue after the G20 meeting.
Many at that time many of Biso citizens remained in the crime.
“I can’t see this change,” Scroving Mr Tshabalala.
“If people are now alive,” says the two homeless men in tents, “I don’t see any change. I don’t know what happens through our government.”
