Eskom has asked Tshwane residents for help to prevent the vandalism of its infrastructure, saying such acts deprive citizens of water supply.

“The vandalism and theft of infrastructure come at a great financial loss to the power utility, which is forced to replace the same at significant and unsustainable costs, further threatening its liquidity and mandate to provide electricity.” “This is posing extreme danger to members of the public,” said Qithi. “On February 15, the electricity supply to Rand Water in Ekurhuleni was affected due to the vandalism of insulators at the Mapleton line, putting essential water supply at risk for the residents of Ekurhuleni, Tshwane, Lesedi, Govan Mbeki and Thembisile Hani Local Municipalities,” said Qithi. She said the vandalism and theft extended to pylons raising the possibility of steel parts falling off. The power utility said the rise in theft and vandalism of electricity infrastructure threatens the supply of water by Rand Water. Qithi said the residents of Ekurhuleni, Tshwane, Lesedi, Govan Mbeki and Thembisile Hani were the latest victims of poor service due to the theft or vandalism of infrastructure.
