Joburg deputy mayor says Eskom will assist City Power to improve revenue collection

# Johannesburg deputy mayor, Loyiso Masuku, says Eskom has committed to working with City Power to improve revenue collection, meter balancing, and to stop power wastage. City Power owes the power utility 5.3-billion-rand in historical debt and 1.6-billion-rand on its current account. Eskom has threatened to cut power to four substations, Fordsburg, Beyers Naudé, Crowthorne, and Allandale, due to City Power failing to pay its debt. Masuku says discussions with Eskom will continue, adding that they remain committed to helping City Power with its challenges.
