Gauteng water supply
WATCH LIVE: Minister Mchunu briefs media on Gauteng's water supply disruption
Water Minister Senzo Mchunu is briefing the media on Gauteng's 54-hour water supply disruption.
Just as Gauteng residents were recovering from relentless power cuts last week, households, schools, businesses, and hospitals will now have to endure water supply problems for the next three days.
Last week, the bulk supplier picked up that reservoirs were dipping into low levels and as a result it had to ask the three metros - Ekurhuleni, Johannesburg and Tshwane - to monitor their network supply.
