The most annoying thing is not the loadshedding itself. Its that zesa doesnt stick to its own schedule. We want plan around this shortage. But wen switches off without respecting its times! Wen u say wed there is no zesa let it be so. And thursday wen u say its there. Let it be there. And there at the exact times.
Coz surely 11am is not morning peak ngavepo magetsi acho.

1. What are your morning peaks hours
2. What are your evening peak hours.
3. Urban areas has morning and evening time table.
Why isn’t it the same with Rural areas

Urban times an area goes for half a day whilst rural times its a full working day.

WHY

Its either we commercialize the supply of electricity or let local authorities provide electricity to their cities. The advantage is the mayor becomes accountable to the people and the people can fire the mayor if he/she is not performing. The current arrangement leaves the people with no one to replace. If the loses industry is incurring due to electricity outages were published even the president of the country will feel bad.
