The African National Congress (ANC) Secretary-General Fikile Mbalula has threatened to take former Eskom CEO Andre de Ruyter to court if he does not substantiate corruption claims against the party.

African National Congress Secretary General Fikile Mbalula.

Mbalula, who addressed the media in Cape Town, has now hit back saying de Ruyter was making the claims in order to mask his own inefficiencies and failures at the power utility. Speculation is rife as to whether Eskom’s former CEO was pushed to resign or chose to take the initiative and jump. The ANC welcomes the immediate resignation of De Ruyter, who will not serve the balance of his notice period till the end of March. While some analysts say de Ruyter’s demise was inevitable given the country’s escalating load shedding, others believe that even for the government his immediate resignation is not ideal.

quote your boss verbatim

Run pappi, run!!!!!

Pls do it

Ruyter is DA no one can change him

How many politicians have threatened authors / journalists with court about books they’ve written and not one has been sued yet. Empty threat I’m afraid 🙈

All those CORRUPT ASSES MUST BE KICKED OUT AT ESKOM AND PAY BACK THE MONI

Why should Andre de Ruyter do'THAT' IS IT BECAUSE HE KNOW THE TRUTH? ARE YOU SCARED FOR THE TRUTH TO BE REVEALED?

Oh my goodness how I wish this guy could be telling the truth just this once it would be the greatest thing to happen to South Africa if he took Andre to court as that will expose the whole rotten bunch who by not investigating at all make Cyril complicent as President of ANC

Take him to court and let's hear what is really cooking at Eishkom. Let's have another state capture commision or round two going fwd.

Yhooo amamenemene abamfuni umntu othetha inyani.

Take him to Court Brother, take him there. Want to hear it all.

ANC is a useless party so why would you take someone who is speaking facts to court eventually you will lose cause ANC is a incompetent party

I think he knows alot and can say who is corrupt now that he is not employed at Eskom anymore. Dont think he would have made these allegations with no proof.

Mr Gwede Mantashe all fingers point to you. We all have had our suspicions about you for years and many others. THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA .

Mbalula is trying to save his employer. We knew what they were doing but now we definitely know. I hope they don't kill the former CEO, like the lady who exposed the skinny jeans and nothing was said nor done about her actions and dying for the truth

Mbalula I like your character however at this moment that will not be a good idea. Don’t let money change the person that you are. It’s a game of chess here should you quickly make a move you going to loose everything. Choose your sides wisely. Seek advice from family if you can

fikile Sounds like Zuma demanding “his day in court” I think De Ruyter would rather spill the beans while under oath in court than in some media interview. But

Andre De Ruyter is correct about those nja ndinas in the satanic ANC cult 🚮 They're all thieves especially Cyril Ramaphosa's puppets 🐀 🐀 🐀 🐀 🐀 🐀

The country wants to know too, De Ryter must expose corruption in the courts of law. One of the apex priorities by our movement is to fight corruption, lead by example, take him to court Khongolose.....Think about voters too in 2024.......

But the country already knows the party is corrupt, the government is corrupt, it’s not like the guy told us anything new and stuff MbalulaFikile

When a blind man says, I will fight you, just know that he had stepped on a stone. Take him to court and we shall see how big the stone he has stepped on. I will be waiting to hear from you Mr SG of the ANC.

I don’t think he would have said what he said if he didn’t have the evidence to back it up. This will be interesting.

Mbaks you are wasting your time. A nation cannot unhear what we just heard

Why threatening, do what is just right 🤔🤔

threatened to take former Eskom CEO Andre de Ruyter to court if he does not substantiate corruption claims against the party. With taxpayers money 'Secretary-GeneralFikile

We don't have time for mbalula , we need his bosses , vho ramadollars , gwede n Pravin . Mbalula failed as a minister of transport ,

He will substantiate...He had 3 years of gaterhering Intel.

This will be good, because immediately it places pressure for the truth to come out, which is what South Africa want. I support the ANC here. Let the case be opened.

Sometimes one should be careful what one wish for...one might just get it

How is that if you guys give back then you would not have any questions about all they story as they stole the Project ESKOM IS GILBERT ESTATES EXTENSION 65 PROPERTIES BELONGING TO FAZZILA GIVE IT BACK YOU PUT ME ON THE STREETS

Excellent. Let's see this unwind...

Andre must open a case once'

Why don't Afriform nail Fokoli for his role in the State capture sage, that whole process cost Tax payers Billions of rand

You have the proof. Daily load shedding for hours at a time you useless piece of doggydodo

SABCnews mxm phambene mbalula yazi nyani mazivezwe le nonsense ANC selfish batya mali abazi cingeli mpula Kalu jaca

Why

Because he speak out the truth

That's funny coz almost every South African knows the ANC is corrupt so he must take us all to court too.

Andre for president ,look he's brave enough to speak out about what the rest of the country can see

O tlo iphoqa, why did the government not take action when the contractor supplied substandard coal mixed with stones not to help follow up the allegations?

Where is the spokesperson Kante, was she for the election process purpose or🤷🏾‍♂️

There’s no electricity, that says it all for me.

Every person living in SA knows the ANC is corrupt. Isn’t that what the Zondo commission uncovered?

He mustn't bother we Believe Him just like he believes in Ramaphosa
