[File Image]: Minister Gwede Mantashe briefs media on gazetting of Mining Charter.
Energy Analyst, Chris Yelland, says he believes President Cyril Ramaphosa’s decision to appoint an Electricity Minister is, in part, due to Gwede Mantashe’s failure to properly carry out his duties as Minister of Mineral Resources and Energy. Ramaphosa made the announcement, to appoint a Minister of Electricity in the Presidency, during his State of the Nation Address on Thursday night.The President also declared a National State of Disaster as the country continues to struggle with rolling blackouts.
Yelland explains: “The Minister of Mineral Resources and Energy has completely failed in his performance contract with the President to improve energy availability and ensure adequate supply of electricity. So, I think it is a reflection, far more on the Minister of Mineral Resources and Energy than on the Public Enterprises Minister.
And SABC....
It's a ANC issue, not an individual minister. The whole cabinete and state high society are fighting for first place in the 'being useless' competition called politics-South Africa and SOE's management! Parasites, all of them, you included SABS!
Eskomwas not under Mantashe, you are lying.
The new Minister of Electricity and Load Shedding.... We can save some bucks
He is against closure of coal mines which CR is hellbound on closing to appease the west. Closing those mines means thousands of job losses which makes blacks to be on their knees. The west enjoy seeing Africans begging
No shit - the sane solution would have been to fire him and replace him - not create an additional ministry that an overtaxed country can't afford. This is diluting the responsibility and accountability while adding cost. Not a solution.
So why not get rid of him?
He gets tired this chap with the teeth
Soon Minister of murderers, Minister of CIT robberies etc truth be said black government has failed completely to the floor
This one always gets it wrong all the time. One is left wondering who his Business Intelligence clients are? If he couldn't detect SONA had unusual anti-WMC elements. Cyril Ramaphosa repeated Gwede's stance on Coals and responsible Energy transition word for word during SONA.
chrisyelland is desperately trying to hide his racism, and his rightwing supremacists views cloud his judgement. For Pete’s sake chrisyelland call out your favourite Minister of DPE and stop spewing such hate. You sound too clever when you disguise your racism. Sies man!
The fear of fair skinned one had reached pandemic proportions in our country. How the hell is the failure of Eskom to perform attributed to Mantashe when Eskom clearly reports to DPE? 🤷🏾♂️ The intoxication with the fear of Mantashe’s pragmatism is clear in our media. Stru 🤞🏽
Who still listens to Chris Yelland?
ubabakaEmihle Not Pravin but Gwede? Why?
So why doesn't he sack the clown?
I really pray that mantashe gets the boot
White media analyst doing everything to protect Jamnadas, making him a saint, where he is when the country is falling into darkness
What about Pravin, doesn't he take any slack for this?
The ANC led government truly lacks governance. The relevant ministry which is failing the people of South Africa because of being incompetent, it is protected and a nonsensical appointment of another wasteful ministry is proposed. You have really failed this country.
Says a white analyst.
🤬
Km so confused..why appoint an electricity minister if he already committed to end loadshedding within 1 year..also if load shedding will come to an end..why was he promoting cheap solar
Why not discussing Pravin, why is he being left out!!!!
But eskom was not under his watch. U guys are lying
Would it not be more practical to just replace Mantashe with someone competent and honest … this smacks of typical Ramaphosa indecisiveness and cowardice
