Ramaphosa must clarify new load-shedding threat
16 December 2014
Eskom's announcement this morning of the "loss" of 4 power generating units is ominous news for South Africans as we enter the festive season.
Eskom has been promising South Africans that the power grid is stable and that there will be enough electricity to see us through this period.
How is it possible then that we are suddenly being informed of a high risk of load-shedding?
The Democratic Alliance calls on Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa, as the new custodian of Eskom, to urgently provide clarity on this new load-shedding threat.
