… on second thoughts
So yesterday I was feeling great sympathy for the ZESA guys and their hard job, which they undoubtably do have.
But why, oh why are we being subjected to power cuts when street lights are being left on during broad daylight?
In the last four days, visiting a friend, I’ve noticed the street lights shining brightly in the sunlight in the main road leading to her house.
The lunacy is compounded by the fact that bulbs and materials are in short supply. The street lights in MY street are totally dark and never, ever, shine, not even at night and not even when there is no power cut. And that’s because the bulbs, the fittings and the wires have all been stolen ages ago, and ZESA cannot afford to replace them.
Please ZESA, turn off the lights during the day so there’s some power for us during the night!
