‘Each incident was attended to and the water supply was restored as soon as possible,’ said Municipal Manager, Mbali Ndlovu.
‘One incident involved a burst pipe and was repaired as soon as it was reported.
Responding to the overtime dispute with staff, Ndlovu said the municipality could not confirm that the service delivery issues were related to the administrative matters.
