Emfuleni Local Municipality to pay R50mln towards Eskom debt: Maile - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

The municipality’s assets were attached by Eskom last week because it owes the power utility a R2.3 billion electricity bill.

Maile says two other Gauteng municipalities, Randwest and Merafong Municipalities that owe Eskom are facing a crisis.De Ruyter says they’ve agreed to suspend attaching Emfuleni’s assets upon Eskom receiving the R50 million that the municipality has promised to pay. Randwest and Merafong municipalities owe Eskom R355 million and R377 million in electricity debt, respectively. De Ruyter says they too will have their assets attached if they fail to pay their debts.

He says the historical debt does not disappear and needs to be paid. De Ruyter says where debt is due to Eskom they will aggressively go after those who don’t pay because Eskom has lenders knocking on their door.

They must pay like we do our suffer the consequences like we do! SA’s get cut.

So owing 2300 million they pay 50 million. That's 2250 million still to pay. It's like me owing R2300 and paying R50 to avoid being cut off! Will know when I owe.
