Bhaca Isolation

I asked myself why the Bhacas at Eastern 
Cape  were isolated  by the people who spoke their  language.I think their History
may tell us.
I was told by one elder  that  they moved from  South and acquired the Land.They
fought fiercly to acquire  the Land.

The  defeated People passed from generation  to generation.When Transkei got the fake indepence the Development
Fund  did not reach the lands of Bhaca.
When you move towards their places,you don't  find the clear  marked streets.
Schools were built with mud.

There  was no clinic.The Police station was found at Kokstad and later at Mt.Frere  which was supposed  to service
more than 10.000 people.

There were no jobs.Instead they created farming. The Youth underwent  Police 
Training  like my father.So the youth had to
help to keep cattle  and sheep farming where the women had to collect twigs from the nearby bush.

The  water had  to be fetched from Umzivubu River.Perhaps one day  the water  will be drawn to the nearby villages.
