WATCH: Zikalala defends delivery of water to his house
In a video shared on social media, the water - meant for the public - is delivered to Premier Sihle Zikalala's home in the wake of the devastating floods in KZN.
KwaZulu-Natal Premier Sihle Zikalala has defended the delivery of water by a tanker to his personal home.
In a video shared on social media, the water - meant for the public - is delivered to his homestead in the wake of the devastating floods in the province.
Responding to the clip on Sunday, Zikahlala said the water was delivered after the local community had first been assisted.
"They gave water all over," he said, explaining that only after this did they deliver to his house, and after his wife had tried to access water elsewhere.
He added: "What is not reported, is what the family, led by my wife, is doing in cooking and providing food to the people staging at (the community) hall."
