The Democratic Alliance (DA) has submitted two petitions on the incessant power outages in Ekurhuleni to Parliament for debate.
The petitions submitted include one from the residents of Boksburg and another from residents of Germiston in the Ekurhuleni metro calling on the assembly to investigate the numerous power outages.
Mike Waters, DA Constituency head, said the DA would like to assure residents the petitions they sign are not in vain.

“If we all stand together the City of Ekurhuleni will have no choice but to address the electricity crisis,” he said.
