Make your vote count on 7 May

Maybe some Lekwa residents have forgotten about load shedding.

Mpumalanga is the powerhouse of South Africa where most of the electricity used in the country is generated.

If South Africa’s economy was growing and jobs were created, Mpumalanga would probably benefit the most.

The province’s economy is not growing and more people are unemployed, while South Africa has a power emergency with electricity prices increasing annually.

Maybe some Lekwa residents have forgotten about load shedding.

Residents of Phalama and Ext 6 and 7 have dirty and smelly water, residents of Rooikoppen can not drive in their roads because it is not graveled and the sewer blockage is a daily problem, the billing system is incorrect and the business community took it upon themselves to fill several potholes in Lekwa.

Where are Toga Linings, Nestlé, Wooltextiles, Coke a Cola, Chicken Lickin, to name a few.

I think the people of the country, especially Lekwa, has a chance to differentiate between good and bad on 7 May.
