SA's electricity crisis | Parents protest at Zandspruit school

JOHANNESBURG - Tensions ran high in Zandspruit, Johannesburg on Tuesday morning.

Some parents are angry about power cuts in the area.

They forced the Masakhane-Tswelelo Primary School to shut its doors.

They claim that their children are suffering because teachers say they cannot teach without lights, despite the school owning a generator.

Zandspruit is infamous for illegal electricity connections.

Eskom has removed them on numerous occasions.
