@tshishonga7@koko_matshela@Eskom_SA Oh puhlease, you’re seriously going to bring in race into this? The current CEO is the only white CEO since 2000. What’s your point, really?
@SizweLo@nickhedley @Tshilidzi100 @GerardAraud Eh maybe the fact that it is R400b in debt, that it can’t keep the lights on, that they’ve only built one completed power station since early 90’s, that they haven’t updated 60 year old infrastructure. You know, the obvious reasons.
Eskom, SAA, DENEL, Transnet, PRASA, SABC, South African Post Office, etc.
Do ANC leaders sit back, by themselves in the NEC/NWC and say “comrades, we messed up, let us go and own up with South Africa”?
@master_otu @phoyana2311@News24@politicsblahbla@Fin24 Agreed, but if it’s about skin colour, why haven’t they ensured that in nearly 30 years there were black candidates?
@Eskom_SA experts have been telling you for 15 years that the aging equipment is not meant to be switched on and off ad infinitum...but your only solution over all these years has been LOADSHEDDING nothing else was considered or tried to prevent this. Don't cry now!!
@Eskom_SA Besides illegal connections vandalism etc mentioned in the notice the reality is the transformers and mini substations were never meant to be switched off and on as much as it gets done during loadshedding, that adds to the failure rate
@DallasMaloca@News24@noksy_k@Fin24 They’ve all failed. The failure started when the ANC became the ruling party. It’s been going from bad to worse for years. You cannot supply the current demand with 60 year old infrastructure that was hardly maintained properly since the 90’s.
@BDamasane@kmosebetsi@News24@Fin24 They aren’t solely to blame, but they are part of the problem, and then they destroyed what little we had left in this country with their illegal strike.
@News24@Fin24 The infrastructure was not designed to be put “on and off” at this rate and with these intervals. So this simply compounds the problem of old stations that haven’t been maintained properly through 3 decades.
The DA has raised questions about how Eskom, is continuing to supply electricity to neighbouring countries when it is implementing Stage six rolling blackouts in South Africa. #SABCNews
