Stage 6 Loadshedding Warning Has Mzansi People Throwing in the Candle: “They Might as Well Shut Down Eskom”

• If Eskom puts Mzansi on Stage 6 loadshedding, then people feel they might as well cut their own power
• Eskom CEO Andre De Ruyter said the protests have put extra strain on power plants, which could result in implementation of Stage 6
• The people of Mzansi could not deal with the warning and took to social media to vent their frustrations

Stage 6 loadshedding? Kante! The people of Mzansi went off just like the lights when Eskom pulls a fast one with the electricity. They say eras repeat themselves, but no one was ever ready to relive the stone age.

The resilience of the people of Mzansi is commendable. However, while looting and even the global pandemic have an end, this Eskom crisis seems as if it will live with us forever, like the everlasting fear of polony thanks to Listeriosis.

Eskom CEO Andre De Ruyter claims that the loss of units and protest disruptions at Eskom have heightened the risk that loadshedding will go to Stage 6 this evening, Tuesday 28 June 2022.

The people of Mzansi have their say about this Stage 6 nonsense

The general consensus is that Eskom might as well accept defeat and turn off the power for good because the people of Mzansi cannot take this nonsense any longer. They’d rather know they have to forage for firewood than have hours of power cuts just sprung upon them. We either live like modern people or go back to caveman days, this in-between is confusing. LOL, peeps are gatvol!

Take a look at what some had to say:
