31 December 2025- The Mamusa Local Municipality said Eskom technicians are currently at their town substation. The municipality said from here, they will be attending to the transformers as they are still awaiting instructions from Bloemfontein.
The Municipal Manager of Mamusa Local Municipality, Rantsho Gincane said thereafter, they will contact the municipality for a way forward. Gincane said Eskom is unable to confirm the time of power restoration.
“Eskom does not have a dedicated Communications Office that liaises with either the municipality or its clients, who are our residents. As a municipality, we have to search information from technicians who in most cases have no updates as well.
“Eskom operates through fault logging and providing reference numbers and then dispatch technicians at their own time. We, however, commit to continue seeking information because we are part of your frustrations. We have on several occasions engaged Eskom in this regard, including proposing that their site offices be used for complaints,” he said.
