Mchunu wants Gauteng to lock its gates to preserve water

Minister Senzo Mchunu said people settling in Gauteng and connecting to water illegally is affecting the supply.

Water and Sanitation Minister Senzo Mchunu has also blamed population growth and summer as the reasons Gauteng residents were facing water challenges. Last week, Johannesburg Water senior networks manager Logan Munsamy blamed the population growth in the city as one of the reasons for water shortages. Chief operating officer, Derrick Kgwale, blamed high temperatures for the water crisis, saying heat was part of the reasons for their problems.

“As we speak, I can assure you that between this morning and now, several people have settled in Gauteng,” he said. “They already have homes, they will be having their first night in Gauteng as we go and sleep. These are people we didn’t enjoy the morning with; they will demand water before they sleep.
