On Tuesday, a number of businesses in Alexandra north of Johannesburg had their electricity cut off including a church for owing the city millions of rands in unpaid electricity accounts. City Power says businesses in Alexandra township owe the city more than R360 million in unpaid electricity.“As we said, we are looking to get about R36 million from all these businesses.
