Durban - Residents and businesses in the south of Durban could be without power for a week after a pylon collapsed, Beeld newspaper reported on Wednesday.
The pylon, which carried cables between the substations at Lotus Park and Isipingo, collapsed after thieves stole the bolts that kept it grounded, said Tony Dold of the eThekwini municipality.
This means that Prospection, Isipingo and surrounding areas would be without power for days, if not an entire week, said Dold.This is so typical of the South African psyche. Feed yourself today, who care about tomorrow, Who cares about the cost to the economy when you are starving and unable to eat or feed your own family, would I steal to survive???? absolutely!!!
So where are the jobs the ANC promised to the people. Funds allocated to labour intensive projects are being pocketed by the local officials so "Stealing" is practised by our senior officials and leaders so why is it so surprising that our crime rate cannot be curbed?
