Ramokgopa Promises To Work With Municipalities Regarding Eskom Debt

Electricity Minister Kgosientsho Ramokgopa has promised to work with ailing municipalities in the country to deal with their debt to Eskom .

The minister visited Tokologo Local Municipality in Boshof in the Free State to address municipal debt issues.

The municipality owes the power entity R328 million.

The last time the municipality honoured its debt with Eskom was three years ago.

Eskom intended to reduce electricity supply by the end of January next year but that move has since been averted.
