And they are proud about this problem😮
Fuel price in Angola is R 4.60 per liter after 48 percent hike, South Africa at almost R 24.00 per litre! We are paying for the diesel used by ESKOM, nevermind the loss of electronic and house hold items because of over and under voltage problems. Generators are meant for emergency only, not sustainable!
That's actually the effect of this capitalism animal you so love and defend. It's not corruption or anything of the sort.
Many have been making courrpt diesel money.
It's common knowledge the ANC uses the fuel needed for the ocgts for revenue
Whow that is sick make no sense
How is it even possible!?
With the ANC... Anything bad is possible
From the horse's mouth, not any mysterious sauce.. 🤣
30 years of Democracy and what have we to show for it. If we had reliable electricity, maybe we could shed some light on it. But never mind, isn't this continent called "Darkest Africa" and we are just living up to that Moniker, at least in South Africa.
So what you are saying is that these OCGTs have to run for the comrades to fatten their stomachs
Close to a 100 billion? Bro!!!
Yes a lot of businesses have shut down so that by itself has helped and mines have shut down, so there is nothing to be proud of .
Congratulations to the diesel suppliers.
An investigation should be made into Ghordans links to the diesel cartel.
Particularly FFS Refiners.
I bet this ‘expert’ has some undeclared links to a supplier of diesel and or renewables suiplier
If he is ANC then yes
More businesses have closed the past 12 month's/more solar and alternative means to keep residential lights on. They burning diesel like crazy to keep the lights on. The coal fleet is tired (exhausted) - cannot be sustainable and its operating at 58% i think?
Look look my man please ALot off BS Okay
Highlighted comment, you call me "you" while "you" do not know who I am??? Why do you think I am with President Zuma and not with the ANC apartheids movement??
