‘Everybody who wants to play politics just runs to Hammanskraal’
Tshwane Mayor Stevens Mokgalapa believes the accusations of substandard drinking water in Hammanskraal is a mere political ploy.
“We are on top of the game as far as the Hammanskraal is concerned,” he said.
“The city is in the process of upgrading the Temba Water Treatment Plant, which supplies water to the Hammanskraal area.”
This follows a report by the Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS) which expressed concern at the quality of water available to the residents.
The department’s spokesperson Sputnik Ratau said they will be guided by the lab results and the findings of the South African Human Rights Commission.
