#Water Problems

Water revenue in Tshwane is not being reinvested into fixing pipes and infrastructure. 🚰📉 Under the ANC led coalition, it is dumped into a general municipal pot and spent elsewhere, while tanker budgets explode by R777 million. No wonder taps keep running dry.

If Tshwane is serious about fixing the water crisis, it will ensure the City has the skills needed to stop leaks and restore supply, not keep protecting suspended officials. 🚰 The ANC is illustratably no longer fit to govern, and dry taps are just the latest proof. Residents deserve action, not excuses. 📉

❌ Excessive spending on water tankers for Tshwane residents is not the solution for the ongoing water crisis. We need pipes repaired, meters fixed, and reservoirs in good condition. The City of Tshwane could stabilise the City’s water supply by maintaining water infrastructure. #NoDryTapsGauteng

🚱🚨 Water losses in Tshwane have increased from 32% to 40% in a year, which has contributed greatly to the City's ongoing water outages. This calls for urgent intervention in repairing and maintaining the City’s water infrastructure. Residents cannot live off water tankers. Take action now. Register to vote in the next elections.

Water losses in Tshwane are now at 39.1%. 📈 In just one year, losses increased by 4.7% costing residents an extra R300 million per year. 🚰More leaks mean more water tankers and more money wasted instead of fixing pipes.

Another water leak left unattended in Garsfontein, damaging the road and wasting thousands of litres. Tshwane loses 40% of its water before it reaches residents because infrastructure maintenance has been neglected under the ANC led government. Bring back a DA government that fixes infrastructure. 🗳️ Register to vote at check.da.org.za 💧💙

Water from taps should be the priority, not water tankers. Under the DA, Hammanskraal was on a clear path to reliable water. Under the ANC coalition, tanker spending grows while residents stay stuck with tankers and unreliable water. 🚰📉

The ANC Government in Tshwane prioritizes watertankers while 40% of water goes lost or down the drain. This during a looming water crises in Gauteng with Randwater threatening to throttle supply.

A waterleak that is just as old as the ANC Tshwane government, no wonder the ANC looses 40% of water bought from Randwater.

In the 2026 State of the Nation Address, the President acknowledged the severity of South Africa’s water crisis, pointing to aging infrastructure, maintenance backlogs, and governance failures. The address outlined plans to improve water security through infrastructure investment, stronger oversight, and partnerships aimed at stabilising supply. With many communities facing shortages and service disruptions, water was framed not just as a service issue, but as a matter of dignity and economic stability. Will these reforms restore reliable access to water where it is needed most? #insightfuldailysa #dailyinsightsza #SONA2026 #WaterCrisis #WaterSecurity #Infrastructure #PublicServices #SouthAfricanIssues
