We, the residents of Tshepisong, hereby formally raise our deep concern and dissatisfaction regarding the ongoing poor electricity service delivery in our community.

For an extended period, we have been subjected to:

Frequent and prolonged power outages
Delayed response times to reported faults
Aging and overloaded infrastructure
Unsafe and unreliable electricity supply
Lack of communication and transparency from City Power

These issues have severely affected our daily lives, local businesses, safety, and overall quality of living. Despite numerous reports and complaints, there has been little to no sustainable intervention.

⚠️ 

Key Concerns

Infrastructure Failure
The current electricity infrastructure is outdated, overloaded, and not capable of supporting the growing demand in Tshepisong.
Lack of Maintenance
There is clear evidence of neglected maintenance, leading to recurring faults and equipment failures.
Overloading and Illegal Connections
Overburdened transformers and illegal connections are contributing to system instability, yet no decisive action has been taken.
Delayed Fault Response
Residents are left without electricity for extended periods due to slow response and repair times.
Safety Risks
Faulty cables, exposed connections, and failing transformers pose a serious danger to residents.

✅ 

Our Demands

We demand that City Power Johannesburg take immediate action to:

Conduct a full audit and upgrade of Tshepisong’s electricity infrastructure
Increase capacity to meet current and future demand
Implement regular and transparent maintenance schedules
Address illegal connections effectively and lawfully
Improve response times to outages and faults
Provide clear and consistent communication to the community

📢 

Conclusion

We, the undersigned, refuse to continue living under these unacceptable conditions. Reliable electricity is not a privilege—it is a basic service and a necessity for dignity, safety, and economic participation.

If our concerns are not addressed urgently, we reserve the right to escalate this matter to higher authorities and pursue further action.
