dc.description.abstract The primary aim of this study was to investigate the magnitude of the water shortage and deficit in the Lepelle-Nkumpi Local Municipality, which falls within the Capricorn District Municipality in Limpopo Province. The Lepelle-Nkumpi Local Municipality is increasingly experiencing water scarcity and deficit while the population expands in the area. For the purpose of this study, a qualitative methodology was used to collect information pertaining to the research problem. Interviews and a review of documents were undertaken to collect relevant information. The findings of the study revealed that a faulty water reticulation system caused by leaking pipes and burst pipes has contributed to the water scarcity and deficit in the area. Businesses and households were frequently affected by water supply cut-offs, which resulted in a loss of business opportunities, and households had to purchase water. Nevertheless, it appears that the municipality is making an effort to improve the maintenance of, and repairs to, the water reticulation system, although the work being done in this regard does not seem adequate to address all the water scarcity challenges. On the basis of these findings, it is recommended that the municipality consider drilling multiple water boreholes in the area to address water shortages. en

Masipala wa Muganga wa Lepelle-Nkumpi wu ya emahlweni wu hlangana na ku pfumaleka na ku kayivela ka mati loko vanhu va ya va karhi va ndlandlamuka endhawini. Hi xikongomelo xa dyondzo leyi, maendlelo yo hlamusela hi vuenti ya tirhisiwile ku hlengeleta mahungu lama fambelanaka na xiphiqo xa ndzavisiso. Tiinthavhiyu na mpfuxeto wa tidokhumente swi endliwile ku hlengeleta mahungu lama faneleke. Leswi kumiweke swa dyondzo swi humeserile erivaleni leswaku sisiteme leyi hoxekeke ya mphakelo wa mati leyi vangiweke hi ku pfuta ka tiphayiphi na tiphayiphi leti bulukeke swi nghenisile xiave eka ku pfumaleka na ku kayivela ka mati endhawini. Mabindzu na mindyagu swi khumbekile swinene hi ku tsemiwa ka mphakelo wa mati, leswi vangeke ku lahleka ka mianakanyo ya bindzu, naswona mindyangu a yi fanele yi xava mati.. Hambiswiritano, swi vonaka onge masipala wu le ku endleni ka matshalatshala yo antswisa nhlayiso, na ku lunghisa, sisiteme ya mphakelo wa mati, hambileswi ntirho lowu endliweke eka nkarhi wa sweswi wu vonakaka wu nga ringanelanga ku ololoxa mintlhontho hinkwayo ya nkayivelo wa mati. Hi ku ya hi leswi kumiweke, ku bumabumeriwile leswaku masipala wu anakanya ku borha tindhawu totala ta mati endhawini ku ololoxa ku kayivela ka mati.. tso

Mmasepala wa Selegae wa Lepelle-Nkumpi o itemogela tlhokego ya meetse le tlhaelelo ka go oketšega mola setšhaba se oketšega lefelong leo. Bakeng sa morero wa nyakišišo ye, go šomišitšwe mokgwa wa boleng go kgoboketša tshedimošo yeo e lebanego le bothata bja nyakišišo. Dipoledišano le tshekatsheko ya ditokomane di dirilwe go kgoboketša tshedimošo ya maleba. Diphihleleo tša nyakišišo ye di utollotše gore tshepedišo ye e fošagetšego ya togaganyo ya meetse yeo e hlolwago ke diphaephe tše di dutlago le diphaephe tše di phatlogilego e bile le seabe go tlhokego ya meetse le tlhaelelo lefelong leo. Dikgwebo le malapa gantši di be di angwa ke go kgaolwa ga kabo ya meetse, e lego seo se ilego sa feleletša ka go lahlegelwa ke dibaka tša kgwebo, gomme malapa a ile a swanelwa ke go reka meetse. Le ge go le bjalo, go bonala gore mmasepala o dira maitekelo a go kaonafatša tlhokomelo ya, le go lokiša, tshepedišo ya togaganyo ya meetse, le ge e le gore mošomo wo o dirwago mabapi le se ga o bonagale o lekana go rarolla ditlhohlo ka moka tša tlhokego ya meetse. Ka mabaka a diphihlelelo tše, go šišinywa gore mmasepala o nagane ka go bora melete ye mentši ya meetse lefelong go šogana le tlhokego ya meetse. nso
