Privatise Eskom!

So, the magical solution to a 15 year problem is to sign a dodgy agreement with mystery power producers? Why the f*ck could we not do this 10 years ago? You people have made SA into a joke all because you're too busy stealing and making your friends rich to do what's right.

Tell us terms of agreement and their identity

From 1960 until 1992 Eskom installed 19 power stations. Eskom produced 56 Gigawatts per day with 17 000 employes in 1994. It now produces (on a good day) in the order of 27 Gigawatts of electricity with 47 000 employees. DO THE MATH !!
