City of Joburg Mayor Dada Morero says the city will now focus on maintaining Eskom payments.

Johannesburg’s Executive Mayor, Dada Morero, announced that the city will prioritize payments to Eskom, reduce electricity losses, and invest in critical infrastructure. After fully settling the accumulated overdue electricity debt of R5.25 billion to Eskom, Morero assured residents that the city would ensure payment of current bills on time and in full to guarantee a continuous supply of electricity.
