#WaterCrisis: Zero plan for Day Zero – 'DA PR exercise' slated.

DA leader Mmusi Maimane introduced his new “Drought Crisis Team” yesterday and said he had taken the unprecedented step of taking political control of the responses to the water crisis.

“I have not been fully satisfied with how the City has responded to this particular drought crisis. Its communication has in some instances fallen short.

“This was not what citizens should expect from a DA government and so I have come to communicate so that you are clear that we are taking decisive action,” he said.

But despite a number of questions posed at the media briefing in Athlone yesterday, a plan of action wasn’t forthcoming.
Instead, opposition parties have called the briefing - where the #DefeatDayZero campaign was unveiled - an “expensive PR exercise” for Maimane.
