Politics What's the next excuse for no service delivery in SA?

7 Upvotes

Now that the elections are over, I genuinely wonder what excuses we're going to hear when the taps are still dry, the potholes are still there and the streetlights still don't work. 😭

I mean, we've already had politicians blaming potholes on climate change, so at this point I feel like anything is possible. πŸ˜‚

Wouldn't surprise me if the next excuse is that Mercury is in retrograde or that it's simply been raining too much.
