South African municipality pays R15 million a month for water its residents don’t receive

The Moretele Local Municipality spends R15 million a month on water, yet residents face shortages due to leaks, decaying infrastructure, and a lack of maintenance.

I hate it when I need to google where a unknown municipality is.
Welkom is also without water.

Name an ANC run municipality that isn't spending millions a month on water and electricity that is wasted due to a lack of maintenance and competence. I can't think of any.

Maybe one of their main KPA's is to actually fvck everything up. Well in that case they are excelling at their job.

How much are we going to bet on the contract being with some family member or friend of one of the municipal employees? Just shows how absolutely shocking the police in this country is if they can't even follow the cookie crumbs leading to the house made of, yeah, you guessed it, cookies!

Good point, and one we hear mentioned quiet often, highly like as well, the ANC have an agenda and they need to break everything down to get the public to buy into their solution.

It makes sense when you accept that they aren't paying R15m to get water. They're paying it so some comrade gets rich

But the Morotelesians voted for this so no skin of my nose
