Power Still Out In South Africa, As Government Works On Restoration

South Africa’s electricity minister has visited Tshwane, the municipality that includes the capital, Pretoria, after seven pylons collapsed on Sunday evening.

Tshwane mayor Cilliers Brink said there was a strong possibility that criminal vandalism was to blame.

Power Minister Kgosientsho Ramokgopa met with Brink and other city authorities on Tuesday.

The mayor tweeted that he agreed to “work with us as we seek to restore power as speedily as possible”
