City of Joburg files to sue Lindiwe Sisulu for over R500k in unpaid utility bills

International relations minister Lindiwe Sisulu is being sued by the City of Johannesburg for unpaid electricity and water bills at one of her properties in Gauteng, reportsAccording to the publication, Sisulu racked up the massive bill when she was Human Settlements Minister in 2014, while Johannesburg was still run by the ANC.

Sisulu said that the tenant was meant to be billed for the massively overdue utility bills, and that she was in fact not aware that the tenant was not paying water and lights bills. Mabaya questioned why the City of Joburg had not disconnected the tenant after numerous non-payments, and said that the City of Joburg wanting to sue Sisulu is nothing more than “cheap politics”.
