Daily News
|October 22, 2025
Northern Area Ratepayers and Residents Association (NARRA) has called on the Msunduzi Municipality to get its billing system in order, before conducting disconnections.
The Msunduzi Municipality yesterday announced that the Qogqimali Disconnection Drive was underway and the team disconnected the electricity supply to a panel beater shop on Saint Andrews Street, due to nonpayment of municipal services.
The municipality said that this operation is part of its’ plan to enforce accountability and to recover outstanding municipal debts. The municipality stated that they will continue to ensure that all customers, including businesses and government departments, meet their obligations and contribute to a sustainable, service-driven city.
On Wednesday, the municipal teams went to Burger Street at the Department of Education's Head Office, where they disconnected electricity and water services due to outstanding debt owed by Section 21 schools. The municipality did not provide figures for the amount owed.
