Eskom on Thursday attached the Emfuleni local municipality’s assets after obtaining a R1.3bn judgment against it.

has also approached the department of co-operative governance & traditional affairs to assist it with the City of Tshwane, whose debt continues to grow “unabated” despite numerous talks.

Tshwane’s total bill on November 30 is R1.6bn after it failed to pay R886m for September — the amount was due on October 19 — and it is in arrears of R699m, Eskom said.“The Public Finance Management Act requires that institutions recover what is owed to them. It is for this reason that Eskom sought the intervention of Cogta in this matter.

“The power utility relies on municipalities and all its customers to pay their accounts timeously in order for Eskom to continue delivering on its mandate to supply electricity.”
