Eva Rap Diva expresses her opinion on the Kinaxixi waterfall: - “Lack of water or criminalization of poverty?”

The recent interruption of the water flow in the artificial waterfall at Largo do Kinaxixi, just four months after its redevelopment, has generated a great deal of controversy on social media. While some justify the decision based on the “bad behavior” of people who used the place to bathe, Angolan rapper Eva Rap Diva brought a deeper reflection on the situation, by focusing on the problem, which for her is linked to the lack of access to drinking water for the population. Eva Rap Diva took to her social media pages to express her concern about the critical comments made towards those who use the waterfall to bathe. For the rapper, this type of speech diverts attention from the real problem, the lack of basic infrastructure to ensure that everyone has access to water.
