This initiative aims to protect municipal infrastructure and ensure revenue collection for efficient and effective service delivery.

The programme was led by the MMC for Environmental and Waste, Clr Betty Maphosa, the MMC for Financial Services, Clr Faith Msibi, and the Chief Whip, Clr Given Koko, on May 23.

The programme is an ongoing commitment to strengthening service delivery and municipal accountability. By collaborating with law enforcement, municipal departments, volunteers, and local stakeholders, Letsema promotes efficiency and ensures residents see real improvements in their neighborhoods. By disconnecting illegal connections and bypassed meters, the municipality can ensure that services are delivered efficiently and effectively to those who need them most.

The Executive Mayor, Clr Vusi Nhlapho, previously stated that, “We aim to bring municipal services closer to the people, making sure every ward benefits from dedicated attention and sustainable solutions. Letsema is about restoring dignity, fostering community pride, and ensuring that Emalahleni remains a well-serviced and livable municipality for all.”

The municipality encourages residents to report any instances of illegal connections or meter bypassing and to work with them to ensure that services are delivered fairly and efficiently to all. By working together, the municipality and the community can ensure that Phola receives the services it needs to thrive.
