Eskom responds to unlawful DA protest at its Megawatt Park offices
20 January 2016
The Democratic Alliance (DA) today [Wednesday] unlawfully protested at Eskom’s Megawatt Park head office in Sunninghill.
The group arrived at Eskom without prior approval. They then proceeded to occupy the reception area and demanded to see Eskom Group Chief Executive Mr Brian Molefe.
Mr Molefe thereafter accepted a petition from the DA’s Natasha Mazzone and Kevin Mileham. However, Eskom wishes to condemn this kind of action in the strongest terms possible. Ms Mazzone and Mr Mileham as Members of Parliament will know the laws relating to demonstration, protests and handing over of memorandums. None of these were followed. All were ignored.
In their petition the DA wants all bonuses paid to employees since 2008 to be returned. These demands are frivolous and preposterous.
