Minister
of water affairs launches national water week but leaves people thirsty
By

COPE
in Mpumalanga
says the launch of the national water week by the minister of water affairs
Edna Molewa in Bushbuckridge was too ironic in the sense that she left the
communities without water still.
The
communities of Sidlamakhosi where she is said to have also made an address were
left without water after Molewa and her entourage, which we are told included
Premier David Mabuza, launched the water week.
This
is also in direct contrast with what the premier had said during his last State
of the Province address that 94% of communities in Mpumalanga had access to water.
COPE
has said it before that that announcement was just a lip service because in the
true sense and reflection of the real scenario people in many communities in Mpumalanga are without
water.
The
promise to the Bushbuckridge community by Molewa that they would soon have
access to water after her visit is strong enough to prove that the premier was
actually not telling the truth about the 94%.
