Creamer Media’s first-hand experience of the construction mafia pointed to those causing disruption being youngsters of school-going age who are free to roam the streets during school time to protest, prevent entry and burn tyres in a country where education is meant to be compulsory.

As it turned out, very slick security personnel, at a turnoff ahead of the construction site, with a wink and a nod, redirected the Creamer Media team, as well as representatives of government, technical institutions, finance houses, law firms and analyst firms, along a back road, which enabled everyone to reach the site without a hitch and hear the very impressive speeches.

It is deeply concerning, however, that so many youngsters are free to roam the streets during mid-morning hours to cause disruption during school time.
