The report allegedly found load shedding in 2008 was orchestrated by Eskom workers to get emergency coal contracts signed.
The Democratic Alliance has given President Cyril Ramaphosa until Friday to release the outcome of the Special Investigating Unit’s report on Eskom’s multibillion-rand coal deal during the first round of rolling blackouts in 2008.
“The report was handed over to the presidency in July 2017 and allegedly kept hush-hush from the public ears and eyes. But now we, the DA, want the cat to be let out of the bag,” said Mazzone. “We demand the SIU report be released immediately so the people of South Africa can see we no longer have a government but an organisation of criminals and crooks who have taken the power away from the people.”In a statement yesterday afternoon, however, Mazzone said the Presidency had told them that the records and report they had requested did not in fact exist.“This committee was established in response to recent electricity supply disruptions and the negative impact on the economy.
