The scale of rolling blackouts to prevent a grid collapse in mid-summer has raised alarms that the winter of 2023 will be one of darkness. And if that’s the case, it looks like it will also be a winter of turbulent social discontent.
January 2023 was not the worst month, according to Municipal IQ’s database, which goes back to 2004. But the company’s managing director toldthat it was the worst January by a long shot for such protest activity over the past 19 years. Ominous indeed, given that the root cause — the growing number of power cuts — is not going to improve any time soon.
This disturbing trend highlights how the power shortages, and state failure more generally at the hands of the ANC, are undermining South Africa’s social fabric and economy.
