No concrete plans in place to end load-shedding in Gauteng, affecting job opportunities
18 September 2023
Load-shedding in the province will not end by January 2024, as envisaged by the Gauteng Provincial Government (GPG).
Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi misled the residents of this province when he boldly announced that load-shedding would no longer be a problem by January next year.
This information was revealed in a reply to the Democratic Alliance’s (DA) questions tabled in the Gauteng Provincial Legislature (GPL) by the MEC for Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (COGTA), Mzi Khumalo.
According to the MEC, a January 2024 deadline has been set to assess if all the interventions planned to be in place will be capable of relieving the province from load-shedding.
