Power out again: https://bit.ly/1ZMhIUD

Last Tuesday, many suburbs in Germiston were once again left without power. The Germiston City News was made aware of the problem, and attempted several times to get comment from the metro as to the cause of the outage and when power would be restored.

You said:

  •  Riana De Jesus, “Elspark has had no power since 11.30pm last night, still no power. Cable theft. Jet Park also no power just after 9am this morning, don’t know what’s going on.”
  •  Anita Sloane, “When I phoned at 9.30am this morning to report Tedstoneville Extension One. They were not aware — so got no answer as to what the problem is this time.”
  • Nadine Osner Garcia, “Wilbart is still also without power. We are a manufacturing suburb (only companies here) and our ability to produce products on time is becoming near impossible with the weekly power failures. It is severely affecting the way we operate and our turnover.”
  • Bobby Hutton, “It has become an absolute joke with the “powers” that be…no idea what they are doing, or supposed to be doing.”
