Power utility Eskom has admitted that it has failed to find solutions to some of the ongoing problems. BlackOuts LoadShedding

The Eskom Megawatt Office Park in Sunninghill.

Power utility Eskom has admitted that it has failed to find solutions to some of the ongoing problems. This after a damning report by the University of Johannesburg, which alleges that Eskom’s programme of Load Reduction is based on apartheid-era principles.“There is no solution because Eskom cannot physically guard people to stop them from climbing up electricity poles and connect illegally. It is the people that must guard themselves and condemn each other for stealing electricity,” says Mantshantsha.

These agreements allow Eskom to sell electricity at much lower rates to two of the biggest mining companies in Africa.“The contract that you mention was signed in 1989 when the country had more electricity than it needed. You will remember that this was a time when Eskom only supplied electricity to only a certain race,” says Mantshantsha.

They must QUIT then. We have so many unemployed Engineers who can do the EXPECTED for less.

My question still remains where are those engineers who previously worked for Escom before 1994. Why can't you ask them to come and help you see that you can't find a solution to this Mess. NEVER LET YOUR PRIDE KEEP SOMETHING BROKEN THAT YOUR HEART WANTS TO FIX.

WHY can't they get people who knows the job

This proves their ineptitude, why are they still hold their position if they admitted failure. They already thrown in the towel, let them go

Wendy94669657 Save the country from ANC 😢🤦🏿‍♀️

They agree that they are not fit for the work, fire the whole board with no pay. We have lots of black qualified engineers in SA. How can a lawyer become a CEO at Eskom? Fire that board starting with Pravin Gordan.

Koko Matshela is just a tweet or call away

Bring back Brian Molefe and Matshela Koko CyrilRamaphosa Eskom_SA

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Let them go and those who have solutions must come back

Nifuna ukutshelwa yonke into Nina, nikani koko_matshela umshini wakhe

We need him immediately.

lira12_joy I see,the kitchen is too hot for them. They must just leave. Where is the President?

Some1 must b fired

Well Well Well and yet the media , clever blacks and yts are not blaming CEO white guy and Prime Minister Pravin.

Obaro is selling paraffin cheap 🙉🤞

Finally 🙏

If that's the case then why the hell is De Ryter and his kind still on the job?

Why don't they step down then?

Who cares about the admittance. Bring back the experts.

Wow Sikhonathi and his team has finally agreed 🤣🤣.

Great encouragement Not to move your Business here and on the Flip side to Get your hairy PHATT business ass out of here!!😏

How did Zuma managed to do it? Was there loadshedding problems when he was in charge? If not ask him then, he do have the solutions . Simple !

Why are we still having the useless board and senior management at the helm. DeRuyterMustFall

i have been without electricty since 5pm last night

You only found this out 14 years later

Sadly, those solutions are not lost or hidden. They're readily available, if only some people would swallow their pride and ask. It's crystal that handlers are insistent on the sale. We will have to brazenly prepare for ongoing load-damaging!

Eskom has got laptop engineers. Those Zimbabweans who used to keep the turbines and generators running were chased away. FACT!!

It's good to admit at time's

😳😳 It Sims lik this government won't solve this problem.. So who wil solve it?

But the CEO will remain

The intent is very clear, create a crisis for the people to accept anything as a solution, which is to privatize to the funders of Cyril Ramaphosa.

People must get fired, but they are they still doing there if they can’t perform their duties?

Basically leadership has failed to find the solution and not Eskom. Why are you still there if you cannot do your job.

Koko can assist swallow your pride

Bring back koko_matshela & Brian, perhaps 🤔

Why am I not surprised 🤔🤔🤔

Koko Matshele is alive & kicking why the country continue to have De Ruyter ?

Previn Gordhan and De Ruyter must step aside, Previn Gordhan have collapse every department he has been to including Eskom

As long as the three party alliance are involved nothing will improve only racist transformation.

Political bottlenecks need ANC to resolve

Africa's news leader.Minister for Public Enterprises Pravin Gordhan says Eskom has made progress in stabilising its finances. Nonsense For once I agree with Minister Pravin, he stabilized Eskom finances while the whole Country is in financial crisis due to loadshedding By cutting down on maintance budget Does that make any sense that you’d subject us to loadshedding by repeated breakdowns just so that you get financial stability?
