Load shedding forces matric exam markers to relieve themselves under trees by PalesaDlamini_0
Markers at Sir John Adamson High School in Johannesburg have been left without facilities to relieve themselves as pumps feeding water to the school have not been working at full capacity as a result of the power outages.
City Press has seen pictures of female markers relieving themselves while other colleagues hold up blankets to cover them. Department of Basic Education spokesperson Elijah Mhlanga told City Press that what had occurred at the marking centre was a result of load shedding. “It appears as though the problem has been resolved. But of course it has been clouded in a little bit of haze. First of all, there is a centre manager that must be held to account and that should have explained what was really going on at that specific marking centre.”
