    In 1995, the King Sabata Dalindyebo (KSD) municipality inherited an institution from the apartheid government created homeland that was in financial crisis, this entailed a fifteen million rand overdraft and a thirty two million rand outstanding account with the bulk electricity supplier, Eskom (KSD Municipality minutes, November 1995). In a bid to address the crisis, in 1997 the municipality engaged a private sector consortium called Umthiza Joint Venture to be the managing agent for the electricity supply to consumers.
