TikTok user Gift Kelton Bozekana recorded a funny but real clip in which he let Eskom know that his laptop only works when there is electricity. He explained it as being “like a fridge.” Not everyone is fortunate enough to have a laptop that’s battery actually works.

This means that during the endless hours of loadshedding, he is unable to do varsity work and feels that Eskom is setting him up for failure.
