President Jacob Zuma has reconfirmed government’s commitment to ensure that all communities, households, clinics and schools will have electricity by the year 2014.
He spoke at the official opening of the Hlobo electricity sub-station in Engcobo, Eastern Cape. Zuma admitted that the country’s electrification programme faces huge backlogs.
Municipalities are also often faced with a shortage of skills, limited human resources and not enough time to manage projects.
But Zuma assured the crowd that today’s launch confirmed that government was moving towards meeting its commitments.
