The National Employers' Association of South Africa doesn’t believe Eskom’s electricity price hike will mitigate the power cuts crisis as additional income will continue to flow to corrupt individuals and incompetent municipalities.
“This will be a devastating blow to workers and businesses struggling to survive in an economy still reeling from Covid-19 lockdowns and rampant inflation,” said Cosatu spokesperson Sizwe Pamla.
“The department of mineral resources & energy needs to grant Eskom the diesel import licence it has long been calling for, which will help it to make significant savings.” We refuse to accept an increase is a solution to Eskom’s problems, as additional income will still flow to corrupt individuals and incompetent municipalities who refuse to settle their bills with Eskom“Government's failure to sustain the essential elements of a functioning state, such as sound leadership which inspires respect, integrity in governance, safety and security and maintaining of infrastructure, is most visible in the collapse of Eskom.
Papenfus said South Africans wanted to know how things are going to improve, even with this increase, if the policies, corruption and inefficiency remain.
