# Tshwane mayor Nasiphi Moya has dismissed claims linking the gastrointestinal illness outbreak in Bronkhorstspruit to cholera, saying it has not been identified as the cause. She has also accused the DA’s mayoral candidate, Cilliers Brink, for exploiting the water crisis for political gain. Moya accuses him of making misleading claims about cholera and repeating allegations about the city’s expenditure on water tankers that have already been addressed publicly. She says residents’ concerns about their health and safety must be treated seriously.
