*UNION MEETING TAKES PRIORITY OVER MAJOR FAULTS IN WATER AND ELECTRICITY DEPARTMENTS*

The severity of this institutional failure was made starkly clear today.While the city grapples with major water bursts and widespread electricity outages, there were no emergency teams on standby.

Astonishingly, all departments were attending a union meeting, for which no prior notice was provided to councillors.

This left us unable to respond to emergencies or even to alert residents, highlighting a complete breakdown in communication and priority.

Union Meeting Takes Priority Over Emergencies

Residents are rightly demanding answers during today's widespread water and electricity outages. Here is the unacceptable reality we faced.

All relevant departments were unavailable to deploy emergency teams because they were attending a union meeting. Most critically, this meeting was not communicated to councillors, leaving us powerless to alert you or escalate the emergencies.

This is not an isolated incident but a symptom of a broken system. It confirms a profound disregard for the public.

Today at the homeless shelter in Mayors Walk Pietermaritzburg of Ward 27, the Inkunzi Isematholeni Foundation together with the Msunduzi Municipality and various government departments hosted a special event to commemorate World Homeless Day. Ward 27 Councillor Cllr. Daniel Kemp was also in attendance and provided a welcome address.

The programme celebrated and encouraged individuals who have successfully overcome drug addiction, acknowledging their courage and the support from families, the Foundation, and partners who continue to help them rebuild their lives.

This day reminded everyone of the importance of unity, care, and giving hope to those working towards a better future.

The facility, which is provided by Msunduzi Municipality, provides a home for the 69 homeless girls and allows Inkunzi Isematholeni Foundation to provide rehabilitation facilities and resources for them. To commemorate the day, 61 girls officially completed their rehabilitation programme and are now returning to their families and rejoining society.
