Tshwane’s water crisis has become a major political flashpoint — but what is really happening behind the scenes?
Former MMC for Utilities Temba Fosi discusses Tshwane’s water shortages, water tanker contracts, alleged irregular invoices, infrastructure plans, service delivery, electricity, streetlights and the political battle over how the city should be run.
The conversation also examines the controversy surrounding Hammanskraal, the continued use of water tankers, plans for additional water treatment capacity, municipal spending, private-sector partnerships and competing approaches to service delivery.
The interview then turns to illegal electricity connections, unemployment, immigration, municipal enforcement and the growing contest between political parties in Tshwane.
