Fix Ward 42: End Outages, Repair Roads, Restore Service Delivery
Reliable electricity, clean water, and safe roads are not luxuries, they are basic rights guaranteed by our Constitution. Yet, in Ward 42 (Bo-Dorp and Waterfall East, Rustenburg), residents face constant neglect from the Rustenburg Local Municipality and Mayor Sheila Mabale-Huma.
Every week, communities are forced to endure:
- Unplanned power outages lasting hours, with no warning and delayed restoration.
- Water outages that leave taps dry or running with unsafe, low-pressure water.
- Dangerous pothole-filled roads, damaging vehicles and risking accidents, while no maintenance programmes are visible.
- Failing infrastructure: electricity, water, and road systems are deteriorating with no preventative repairs.
- Municipal silence: complaints are ignored, updates are absent, and accountability is nowhere to be found.
This is more than inconvenience. It is a violation of residents’ dignity, health, safety, and livelihoods. Families, workers, and businesses in Ward 42 pay for services they do not receive, and deserve better.
We, the undersigned, call on the Rustenburg Local Municipality to take urgent action to:
- Provide stable electricity with advance notice of planned outages.
- Guarantee safe, reliable water supply with infrastructure upgrades.
- Repair and maintain roads in Bo-Dorp and Waterfall East, prioritising potholes.
- Invest in long-term infrastructure maintenance to prevent further collapse.
- Establish transparent communication and accountability, including a hotline and regular public reports.
Enough is enough. Ward 42 deserves reliable services, safe roads, and honest communication. By signing this petition, you add your voice to a united demand for action.
