BREAKING NEWS

MDNtv has made history after being awarded Online Media House of the Year at the North West Media Awards, hosted in partnership with North West University.

The awards gained further credibility this year with the addition of respected academic Mr Ofentse Ngake, a Journalism and Media Studies lecturer at North West University. His expertise strengthened the integrity and quality of the judging process, which took place throughout November, followed by the awards ceremony at the Rustenburg Civic Centre.

This victory recognises MDNtv’s commitment to community focused, people driven storytelling and journalism. The award honours reporting that uplifts real voices, reflects local lived experiences, and strengthens public trust in independent media.

This milestone belongs to our dedicated team, loyal viewers, supporters, donors, and partners who continue to stand with MDNtv in championing journalism that serves the people.

Minister Ramokgopa Announces Interventions to End Load Reduction in South Africa | MDNtv Live

MDNtv — Thu, 25 Sep 2025 04:42:10 +0000

Minister of Electricity and Energy, Dr. Kgosientsho Ramokgopa, briefs the nation on new interventions to end load reduction — a measure that has disrupted electricity supply in many communities.

With load shedding now largely behind us, the government’s attention turns to tackling load reduction, which occurs when local networks are overloaded due to illegal connections, high demand, and infrastructure strain.

In this media briefing, Minister Ramokgopa explains:

The difference between load shedding and load reduction

Why load reduction affects specific communities

The urgent interventions being rolled out to stabilise local networks

Plans to permanently end load reduction in South Africa

Stay tuned to MDNtv – People-Driven News You Can Trust for full coverage.
