Thabo Mbeki calls for Eskom’s leadership to be held accountable for loadshedding, SA says he is to blame
In other news, Briefly News reported that former President Thabo Mbeki has called for Eskom’s executives to be held accountable for the energy crisis. He was speaking at the University of South Africa’s Muckleneuk Campus on Wednesday, 21 September, when he made the remarks.
During the lecture, Mbeki questioned those who made the decisions that led to the country’s electricity woes. He speculated that the management that was in charge when Eskom’s woes began wanted to increase the possibilities for black economic empowerment.
The former president said Eskom attributed loadshedding Stage 4 and 5 to power failures at the two old plants, Medupi and Kusile. However, he questioned why the new power stations behave the same way as the old ones.
