The different layers of politics

THICK. The elections are over and the dirty business of removing campaign materials has begun. However, in some parts of the city it’s easier said than done because of the layers of posters pasted, one on top of the other.

In one particular area, DPS personnel said posters appeared to have been plastered five layers deep, as if rivals were taking turns putting their posters over that of the other camp.

They also used a really good adhesive; it doesn’t just come off with water but needs really hard scraping.
