The City of Mbombela Executive Mayor Sibongile Makhushe says plans are under way to build reservoirs for water storage. “More than 200 000 people are going to be receiving water from their taps going forth we are however ensuring that the water we want to be an ongoing thing, it doesn’t stop. We must have reservoirs around that need to be built so that our people have places from there then they will be able to get water.
But the some residents still experience no water supply
