Maybe a Letter Will Solve NMB’s Electricity Crisis?

By

Tomorrow, 13 February 2024, the DA Caucus in Nelson Mandela Bay will be submitting a memorandum to the City Manager requesting immediate intervention in the municipality’s electricity and energy directorate.

The handing over of the memorandum will take place in front of City Hall at 10:00 am in Gqeberha and will be led by DA NMB Caucus Leader, Cllr Retief Odendaal, DA NMB Chief Whip, Cllr Georgina Faldtman, and DA NMB Spokesperson for Electricity and Energy, Cllr Mxolisi Breakfast.

This directorate is in crisis and is finding it nearly impossible to deliver on its mandate, with many residents suffering due to extended power outages and rampant vandalism of electricity infrastructure.

The DA says that they will be highlighting interventions that the City Manager can implement to turn the directorate around.

“We will continue to fight to Rescue Nelson Mandela Bay from the current failing coalition government. Together we can get NMB working again,” said the DA.
