WEST BEHIND SOUTH AFRICA’S BLACKOUTS?
Despite being Africa’s second-largest economy, South Africa's been battling power blackouts for years. Many blame the corruption and inefficiency plaguing the state-owned power firm Eskom. However, some allege it’s being deliberately sabotaged to collapse it ahead of a cheap sell-off to the private sector.
Among those convinced this is happening is South African author and entrepreneur Mpho Dagada. He claims the public would never sanction Eskom’s sale unless it were on its last legs. He alleges Western capitalists are now encouraging senior members of the country's ruling party, the African National Congress (ANC), to help do that by embezzling Eskom funds. It’s an outlandish allegation, but could it be true?
The ANC has always denied such rumours. Last year it threatened legal action against former Eskom CEO Andre de Ruyter, who described the firm as a 'feeding trough' of the party.
Whatever the truth is, Eskom is a faltering company, and South Africans are suffering as a result.
Listen to this guy's take on the sad situation and give us yours.
