The economy of Africa's wealthiest city, Johannesburg, is at risk.

That's according to small business owners operating in the city. They
say crumbling infrastructure, lack of service delivery and a high
crime rate have increased the cost of doing business in the city.

his office soon, business reporter Ntokozo Khumalo spent the a day
with business owners in the inner city and filed this report.
