Dhlomo shut down claims that he was “paying through the nose” to keep his driveway lit. The bill showed he paid R554.37 for April 2026.

Naturally, many social media users were shocked to see that he was paying that little for electricity.

“R554.37 a month??” asked one internet user in utter shock.

“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,” commented another user.

Another added: “If only y’all knew how much a 127 KWh system costs😭 he paid all his electricity costs in advance 😂”

“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 paint their paving bricks & we wonder why their homes flood in the rain!” said one more.
