Cutting Edge | When Hope Runs Dry

Cutting Edge visits Maqashiya Village in Nkandla, where generations of residents say they have lived without basic services, including running water, proper roads, electricity and formal housing.

The story asks whether these interventions will bring lasting change to a community that feels forgotten.
