Tshwane Mayor Randall Williams says authorities are working on restoring electricity on Saturday in some areas affected by power outages.
Several areas including Mooikloof, Moreleta Park, The Wilds, and Fairie Glen have been without power for the past nine days.
He says there has been poor investment in the infrastructure and that the city needs R12-billion to fix it.
“The city has very, very old infrastructure and it has been going for many, many decades. There has been poor investment in infrastructure and what we are doing by addressing here and there is putting a badge on a festering wound,” he said.
“What the city needs is to invest R12-billion to totally refurbish the electrical infrastructure of the city and unfortunately the city does not have R12-billion available.”
