Responding to the clip on Sunday, Zikahlala contextualised that the water was delivered after  the local community had been assisted first. 

"They gave water all over," he said, explaining that only after this did they deliver to his house, and after his wife had tried to access water elsewhere. 

He adds: "What is not reported, is what the family, led by my wife, is doing in cooking  and providing food to the people staging at (the community) hall."
