ANC ignited the Eskom fiasco that is now leaving South Africans in the dark
29 November 2018
The good work done at Eskom by Parliament's Portfolio Committee on State capture is but a flicker of light in an otherwise dark picture of extensive corruption and fraud in which the ANC government was involved at the national electricity supplier.
The current load shedding is a direct result of the Eskom fiasco which delivered a severe blow to our economy.
It raises the question of what created an environment in which corruption and fraud could flourish? The answer is plain and simple: a total lack of accountability, transparency and contempt for legal rules and regulations with a government turning a blind eye to it all.
The Eskom report paints a picture of a lack of political oversight and an inability to appoint competent people based on merit to serve on councils and the management of state-owned entities like Eskom.
