Newsletter| Kgalema Motlanthe believes SA must prioritise to rebuild its broken economy: “We can’t pay attention to all our problems, social, political and economic, at the same time. We are in crisis, and Eskom is an immediate threat to this democracy”

“The possibility exists that at this late hour government, civil society, labour and business can come together to keep the lights on and lift ourselves out of this morass,” he told a Gibs forum event.

Motlanthe said renewable energy sources were still at a fledgling stage and were not yet reliable enough to be added to the energy mix. Following the resignations of Eskom chief executive Phakamani Hadebe and SAA’s head Vuyani Jarana, Motlanthe said interference in the affairs of state-owned enterprises’ boards was unacceptable.

Eskom “hasn’t had a competent board for a while and suffers from weak leadership”, he argued, adding, “the board must be populated by those who can be respected by the engineers. Hadebe never stood a chance of turning Eskom around” because he was a banker.
