Protestors demand reliable water supply Outgoing Mabuza told to stay put

PROTEST: Protestors have demanded reliable water supply from Umgeni Water

Constant water supply interruptions have prompted the community of Hlomendlini (Mandeni Ward 04), led by the ANC Youth League branch, to take to the streets, demanding better services from Umgeni Water.

On Friday last week a group of community members marched to

Umgeni Water's Lower Uthukela Bulk Water Supply Scheme, located adjacent Uthukela River, to deliver a memorandum.

Topping the residents' memorandum was a demand for Umgeni to deliver potable piped water to the community. He protestors also outlined in their memorandum, which was accepted by the plant manager, the need for the company to prioritize local labour and to consider offering internships and bursaries to empower local youth.

The company was given seven days to respond to the memorandum.

Outgoing Deputy President David Mabuza's request to tender his resignation has been put on hold, after President Cyril Ramaphosa told him to stay on in his role, for now. The Presidency aid Ramaphosa asked Mabuza to remain in his position, until the “management of his departure and transition” has been finalized.

Mabuza announced on Saturday that he had tendered his resignation, in order to make way for someone elected at national conference, in an apparent reference to Paul Mashatile who emerged and the ANC's new Deputy President.

Mashatile was this week sworn in as a Member of Parliament, apparently in preparation for his ascendancy to the position of Deputy President.

Ramaphosa is expected to soon announce a major cabinet reconfiguration. Tomorrow (Thursday) he is expected to deliver the State of the Nation Address in Cape Town.
