2 Johannesburg hospitals will have their power cut off if they do not settle their City Power bills in two weeks. Image: Alistair Routledge /Chris McGrathTwo hospitals, Rahima Moosa and Helen Joseph Hospital, received a two-week notice to settle their combined bill of R32 million. Issac Mangena from City Power toldthat they do not usually flip the switch on essential services, but they need to if they want to "stay above the waters".
"City Power will not tolerate any nonpayment of services. It is also an opportunity for City Power to recover the revenue it needs to continue to provide essential services to the city’s residents and ensure that we conduct much-needed maintenance on the needed infrastructure.""And patients will be on their own? What a joke and the same patients will vote for the current government again next year... South Africa needs deliverance seriously.
