Yini nje eright engatoyizelwa in SA?
Sitsheleni into eyodwa eyenzeka kahle in SA.Asifuni okubili noma okuningi,just 1 thing
But when mkwerekwere protests the police talk to them sweetly.
lomjita weshlilingi
does police pass a training or paper work before they get hired? because some of them wow
Eskom and the municipalities should take the country serious and stop the nonsense and make sure everyone pays, we can't afford to pay electricity for people who are not spending even a single cent on electricity. Imagine buying R500 electricity only to get less than 120 Units, i mean how crazy is that?.. The people in squatters must not get electricity unless they are willing to pay or else face jail time because this thing of switching off and fining is no helping. enough is enough
South Africa is Series… Data is expensive.. Dstv.. Electricity..everything food
With the way Eskom is embezzling people i don't blame em for their outrage, R100 gets you 20 units 😪
The electricity is expensive and the unemployment rate is higher…The system is rigged😢
With the billions the ANC looted they could’ve easily funded Solar for these communities. Even places as poor as Malawi have installed solar in their villages. The ANC is a disgrace
Can we also engage with Eskom to make steady prices and stop robbing us…….this thing where they reduce units is ridiculous. I don't support stealing whether it's done by Eskom or those communities.
Eskom is not innovative they just want to do things the old way and just invent ways of taking more money from clients.
When it’s South Africans they shoot fire 💁🏾💁🏾💁🏾💁🏾😂😂😂
