Eskom has attached Emfuleni Municipality’s bank accounts to recover R8 billion in arrear debt after the municipality failed to comply with the debt relief program.

Meanwhile at the neighbouring municipality:

Across the fence is the neighbouring municipality of Emfuleni, with a population of close to one million. It is, by most measures, one of the worst-run in the country, with litter tossed onto any available piece of land and sewage seeping onto the streets. It’s frequently in the news, usually for all the wrong reasons, not least because it owes Eskom close to R6 billion; Midvaal owes Eskom nothing.
