Whats the problem with South Africas water supply?
\u201cPeople can\u2019t go to work, can\u2019t cook. We aren\u2019t even sure if the water that\u2019s brought in by trucks is clean. Enough is enough.\u201d\n \nResidents of the Eastern Cape province of South Africa have been dealing with water shortages for months.\n \nA long drought and ageing infrastructure are both impacting on supply \u2013 with around 30% of water being lost because of leaking pipes.\n \nAnd it\u2019s not the first time South Africa has dealt with a crisis of this nature. A few years ago, residents in the coastal city of Cape Town also faced water shortages.\n \nWhat can President Cyril Ramaphosa\u2019s government do to mitigate against natural disasters like drought, and collapsing infrastructure?
