HAMMANSKRAAL - Tensions are boiling over as residents demand answers after yet another missed deadline to see clean and safe water come out of their taps.

But frustrated residents are growing impatient with broken promises and missed deadlines.

In 2023, Hammanskraal was the epicentre of a cholera outbreak. Now, residents are warned not to drink the water until it's declared safe.

And until they see clean water flowing from their taps, promises mean very little at this stage.
