“As an electrician and member of structures combating cable theft, I know how quickly poor maintenance and vandalism can disrupt an entire community. JB Marks must identify and secure critical electrical infrastructure and manage it according to a maintenance programme. Cooperation between the municipality, Eskom, SAPS, neighbourhood watches and residents is essential for reporting and response. I want to use my experience to follow up problems, enforce responsibility and ensure that repairs are properly completed. Our town can once again be managed responsibly, with sustainable, reliable service delivery for residents.”
