Mdoda's opinions split South Africans, but the majority support André. Many people think it's time for Mzansi citizens to be enlightened about the corruption inside Eskom, and the book achieves that.

"You used whatever little electricity we have to charge whatever gadget you use to tweet this nonsense? I wonder if there are gaps between your brain cells too!"

@Soul_Dignified shared:

"Every day on Elon Musk's Twitter, I'm forced to see tweets like these that exacerbate the feeling of doom surrounding South Africa. Nothing is taken seriously because South Africans cannot think critically."

"There's nothing nonsense about the book @Anele. You live in a nice house with either a generator, inverters or solar panels, while millions use candles for light. Think about that!"

@ntifim replied:

"I agree with Anele! We are being milked."

@missZimunya1 commented:

"He had the audacity to write the little book, yet he did nothing in all three years at the helm. Things got worse under his watch."

@moodleyster also said:

"Eskom had 15 CEOs in a decade. Are you upset that one of them documented what happened and shared it with the public? But you are not upset that the other 14 swept everything under the carpet..."
