South Africa’s richest province heading for disaster.
Residents of South Africa’s richest province are facing a worsening water crisis, as a combination of ageing infrastructure, mismanagement and high demand combine to put immense pressure on a failing system.
Speaking on the state of the province on Thursday, Official Leader of the Opposition in Gauteng, the Democratic Alliance’s Solly Msimanga, said that water was listed as a priority for Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi in his 2025 State of the Province Address.
Despite this, the issue has now reached crisis proportions.
