Eskom has called for patience from customers as they work through a significant backlog of outages in Cape Town. The utility company cited adverse weather, theft, vandalism, and illegal connections as contributing factors. Affected areas include Khayelitsha, Grabouw, Macassar, Somerset West, Eersterivier, Kraaifontein, Delft, Belhar, Wesbank, Sir Lowry’s Pass, and Philippi. In a Monday statement, Eskom reassured residents they are addressing the issues.
