FAKE NEWS REGARDING WATER OUTAGES
The municipality wishes to inform residents that fake messages regarding total water outages in the Metro tomorrow have gone viral on social media.
These messages are not true. We condemn the spread of fake news.
All our reservoirs have enough water and apart from Impofu, all other treatment plants are running.
Residents are encouraged to use water sparingly and not stockpile water, as this puts an additional strain on the supply system.
