SA stunned after Sizwe Dhlomo reveals his electricity bill

In the comments, social media users were stunned that Sizwe Dhlomo was paying that little for electricity.

Here are some of the comments:

@lavidaNOTA said:

“Why do people think LIGHTS use up a lot of power? I keep my lights on all night. They’re not boiling water or washing the laundry. I think we need to revisit science in the curriculum. People are out here painting their paving bricks, and we wonder why their homes flood in the rain!”

@k_midlands asked:

“Kanjani manje, I pay that per month, but I only have a stove and a fridge, well and lights. I think they are ripping me off. PS: geyser not included, it's on my water bill.”

@sa_nameless123 remarked:

“This does not seem right, even if you don’t use Eskom at all. The fact that there is a supply to your property means you should be paying more than just the availability charge.”

@APeofessio3530 asked:

“The garden electrical connection is charged separately from the house, or are you 90% off the grid? Unless this is a weekly bill.”

@MegaFunTweets shared:

“Sizwe, don’t do that. Everyone knows the cost of electricity is high. You get less than 50c per Rand in units purchased.”
