after resident expressed outrage about the lack of water and some even threatened to “close down” the Makhado Municipality if the water supply was not restored. “Black and white need to meet after this meeting and chart a way forward … we must stop saying this issue is about ratepayers money. We deposit money this side and we are suffering that side! All of this town … we don’t have water. Why are we so civilized in this town that we cannot stand up and fight for our rights?

At one stage, the whole meeting, including Makhado Mayor Cllr David Mutavhatsindi, broke out in laughter when the Makhado Municipality’s technical services manager, Mr Thivho Ralulimi, admitted that residents are paying for the air that is pushed through the system after each interruption in the water supply as their water meters record this.
