@JHBWater Good afternoon. Hope you are well! The leak that runs down CR Swart onto Pres Fouche is still going strong. It's causing potholes and it makes it impossible to walk on the sidewalk. Thanks.

#KnowYourSystem The Doornkop Reservoir supplies several Soweto communities within the #SowetoSystem. With a 20ML capacity, it relies on consistent refilling. Leaks and illegal connections strain the system, causing low pressure and inconsistent supply. #JoziSaveWater

@UrbanLo Truly beautiful town! 💖

You need to visit De Rust. You must. It's a bucket list necessity. #DeRust

@Theholisticpsyc So so true! I see you have a few narcissists replying to this 🤣

Narcissism is an extreme shame disorder. They have a high need for control and extreme focus on public perception. How to know if you're friends with a covert narcissist:

@JHBWater Good morning. There is water running down Vink Street, on the corner of CR Swart and Vink in Boskruin. It looks like sewage. Thanks! 🙏

@KatyKatopodis @WOOLWORTHS_SA That's great, but I'm very disappointed... Did you bully your chocolatier into liquidation? In this country we cannot afford businesses closing down.... 😭

Relief! 😅 An entire nation of chocolate (and specifically Chuckles) lovers thanks you!

@Theholisticpsyc I tell people l don't get involved in other people's fights and I don't hold grudges.

When someone can't control you, they'll try to control what other people think of you. This is when you set clear boundaries. How To Not Take Emotional Bait:

I will be in Johannesburg tomorrow to Thursday. Recommendations for large potholes where I can swim and kayak would be appreciated

Here is an enhanced photo of the suspect. Someone, somewhere, somehow knows him. Call @SAPoliceService 08600 10111.

Tshwane is alleged to spend more money trucking water than fixing pipes and upgrading water infrastructure. ebx.sh/P8Lohu

@THEDEVCHEV Who is helping themselves with the money we are paying for refuse collection? Is it theft and mismanagement again?

♻️ REFUSE COLLECTION UPDATE 09 April 2026 Time: 07h20 - Cllr Devon Steenkamp Residents are advised that ongoing refuse collection delays across parts of Johannesburg, including Randburg and surrounding areas, are linked to broader operational and financial challenges within Pikitup. Recent reports indicate that missed collections over the past few days are due to a combination of: • Payment delays to contractors (including landfill operators and fleet services) • Limited landfill capacity at key sites • Operational inefficiencies and resource constraints (including diesel and equipment availability) These issues are creating a knock-on effect, where waste cannot be offloaded efficiently, leading to backlogs in collection services. Pikitup has stated that delays in some areas, although there are reports from residents of longer disruptions in certain cases. It is also important to note: • Several landfill sites are nearing full capacity, further straining the system • Garden sites and dumping access have been inconsistent • The City generates approximately 6,000 tonnes of waste daily, placing significant pressure on already constrained infrastructure Refuse collection may remain inconsistent in the short term while these systemic issues are being addressed. I am continuing to engage with Pikitup and relevant departments to push for improved collection schedules and accountability, especially in affected areas within Ward 134. Please continue to place bins out on your scheduled day, even if collection is delayed, as teams may return to clear backlogs. Further updates will be shared as more information becomes available. Kind regards, Cllr Devon Steenkamp Ward 134 Councillor

@Theholisticpsyc How can I help such a person? She is a friend of mine.
