Residents all over the municipality is smiling tonight as the lights stayed on.
After a week of power cuts, Eskom suspended the interruptions temporarily until next week Friday, March 3.
This will give the municipality time to remedy the breach and bring some normality.
Eskom said in a statement they feel the pain inflicted to the members of the public and the unintended consequences of the disruption of essential services, in particular access to water.
This gesture from Eskom will allow the defaulting municipalities some time to remedy the breach and also bring some normality to the affected communities.
Should the municipalities fail to remedy the breach, the interruptions will resume from March 4.
Eskom reserves the rights to continue with the interruptions following adequate notice to the community.
