'I don't have my normal life anymore' - load shedding has South Africans fuming | ntwaagae
Regardless of the stages, load shedding is clearly here to stay for a while, and its impact is already being profoundly felt by citizens."I don't have my normal life anymore since load shedding started,” says Matsemela Mahlatji.
"I am battling to get to work on time although I leave home two hours early. Our jobs are on the line due to [lateness], which is something that we didn't anticipate because of traffic congestion in and around Johannesburg.""You can't walk along Small Street. Criminals take advantage of the darkness and rob people. Many shops that sell food immediately close as soon as the power goes off.
"Most places around Johannesburg and Braamfontein have CCTV cameras installed to assist with crime fighting, and as soon as thieves become aware that whenever there is load shedding, they don't work, crime will skyrocket," said Mombe.
