Makana Municipality assures residents they won't be LoadShed for 14 hours a day
Port Elizabeth - The Makana Local Municipality in the Eastern Cape, formerly Grahamstown, has promised panicked residents that they will not experience extended load shedding of up to 14 hours per day.
The Makana Municipality reportedly has until Monday to respond to a high court notice of motion calling for it to intervene in Eskom’s plans to switch off electricity in Makhanda for extended periods of the day. Mpahlwa said that Makana had experienced severe cash flow problems since 2013 with Eskom being the municipality's biggest creditor. He said the municipality planned to pay an amount of R12.6 million to Eskom this month.
