The energy minister is trying to shift the blame for load-shedding away from himself — and has now drawn the president into the circle of fire, writes Peter BruceHaving saved his leadership of the ANC with a powerful intervention against resignation, is mineral resources and
energy minister Gwede Mantashe, just a month later, trying to pick a fight with President Cyril Ramaphosa?..You’ve always trusted us to help you navigate the world. Support the Sunday Times by becoming a premium member for only R80 and keep the conversation going. You can cancel anytime.
Bruceps The president and gwede are useless,they have run our south africa to the bottom pits of hell.Yes they are the biggest threat to our African societies.
Bruceps Guys like Gwede thinks they own the country and have the privilege not to be told by anyone. Another one like him is Pravin gordhan. These fools must go retire.
Bruceps He who makes you can destroy you.
Bruceps Eskom must be under department of Energy, SAA & Transnet under Transport, Denel under Defense. . . Njalo nje. Pravin's Department Public Enterprise is useless like both its minister and his boss
Bruceps The fact that’s Gwede Mantashe is a rival to Cyril Ramaphosa is really and indication of just how weak Cyril’s efforts as a leader have been. CyrilRamaphosa, the most dissapointing man in South Africa.
Bruceps lol where’s Jamnandas
LoveSwaziland Bruceps No way the Gwede fools to blame no doubt about it hm and his big mouth got Mr DR to hamba
Bruceps Fake news
Bruceps When is grand dad going on retirement so young people can get a chance
Bruceps He had no idea what to do from the day he was born but make out as if he knows everything and rules over everything = he is an ultracrepidarian without any brain, so it is impossible to blame him. His paunch is more important to him and sponsored strong liquid, no time to work
Bruceps Wish they would stop f'ing about and sort out the electricity crises...
Bruceps
Bruceps No honour among thieves
Bruceps But Pravin is in charge of Eskom mus
Bruceps Umbeki wenkosana akabusi nayo...
Bruceps I don't like ANC but I am blocking this propaganda newspaper.. I cannot have nonsense on my timeline
Bruceps I'm confused now.... THE MINISTER OF MINERAL AND Energy, says he is not at fault where it comes to Eskom, but then what does Eskom produce?.. And isn't he the one who is standing against municipalities going off grid?
Bruceps
Bruceps They are all to blame. Now that the cow is milked dry by the corrupt money sucking parasite called voetsekanc government each blame the other. They all are corrupt and stole millions for themselves VoetsekANC are corrupt criminals!!!!!!!
Bruceps Your agenda won't fly, forget it. We know it's Pravin Gordhan responsuble for a mess at Eskom_SA .He's to blame and not Mantashe. Voetsek futhi!
Bruceps I dont like Gwede Mantashe because we were supposed to be free now,he begged the big nose to stay,but all white and racist media is focusing on him, why this media is not talking once about Jamnandas Gordhan as he is still in charge of Eskom
Bruceps The current CEO found the EAF at 70% and has collapsed it to less than 50% in 3 years.
Bruceps Who was the political head of eskom all along?
Bruceps All worthless thieving scum. State independance is the only way to go.
Bruceps It says here White liberals are close to Ramaphosa.Names like Anton Eberhard Mark Swilling and Crispian Olver given. What Gwede Mantashe alluded to. Ramaphosa must choose between them and MYANC delegates. See my thread this am. how above fits in with Western control of energy.
Bruceps
Bruceps Now this is the perfect example of Captured media
Bruceps SAEditorsForum what do you say when media fails to inform the public but directly mislead and play politics?
Bruceps Dear Isn't Minister Gordhan the Minister responsible for Eskom_SA? I'm curious as to why you would rather blame a newborn baby for burping than say anything against Gordhan to do with LoadShedding but he's directly responsible?🤔🤷🏽
Bruceps The ANC no longer represent black people. The it represents them 👇
Bruceps But you are after he wrong person. Is it because he is not Indian or white. Eskom is under Gordhan. Why are you not after Gordhan? You are also silent on umlungu's failure to end loadshedding as he CEO of the utility.
Bruceps
Bruceps The future and current state of the South African Mining industry has been damaged by this man and he also needs to GO.
Bruceps The army has been unleashed. Gwede is to be stopped at all costs. The just transition thugs are circling, pretending to be saving the planet
Bruceps If you want to blame anyone for load-shedding Andre DE Ruyter, Pravin 'Jamnandas' Gordan and Cyril Ramaphosa. In that order.
Bruceps What does Gwede have to do with this? You guys are being ridiculous and silly! Bruceps
Bruceps The boers want Gwede gone. They have unleashed their media dogs to have him for breakfast, lunch and supper.
Bruceps I love how the media never mention the minister actually responsible for Eskom
Bruceps Pravin Gordhan is the minister in-charge of Eskom. Pravin Gordhan failed his obligation to solve SAA, Denel and now Eskom! Explain for 2 marks how GwedeMantashe1 fits in?
Bruceps We blame Andre de Ruyter, Pravin and Ramaphosa.
Bruceps Stupid journalism I must say
Bruceps What about the incompetence of Pravin and De Ruyter
Bruceps Qeda umsebenzi wakho…leave this speech thing.
Bruceps Gwede is the de facto (destructive) president-CR is merely our minister of vows and platitudes.ANCs mess was overseen and facilitated by Gwede as SG, in the top 6, chairman of ANC & minster of energy- what power and line of sight didn’t he have?citizens now have to fix his mess.
Bruceps Why is GwedeMantashe1 being targeted? He's a waffling palooka who just talks nonsense... but he hasn't created this mess? The real culprits are being protected while Tiger Guy is being scapegoated... Mantashe being an advocate of CoalMafia isn't enough to blame him. 😡😡😡
Bruceps I don’t pity Gwede he joined the evil RamaRikana aka Ramaphala now they barbarians are at his gate azikhale
Bruceps Captured media so scared to say that De Ruyter failed miserably... now we constantly need to read about Gwede. Gwede became a minister long after Eskoms issues.
Bruceps But Cyril was head of the war room long before Gwede was minister.... maybe media is trying to shift the balme on him
Bruceps Ignore them , they are acting. There is no conflict between the 2, they protect each other, gwede is still a minister after zondo implicated him, cyril wont take action against him because he is in his faction and one of the useless top7.
Bruceps This is what happens when a narrative is in charge Instead of competent people lol
Bruceps You are trying to hard. I hoe CR retains Gwede in energy. We need a nonsense Minister who will make unpopular decisions.
Bruceps This nonsensical anti-Gwede tirade by the captured and pro RE media and journalists like Bruce will fail dismally
Bruceps Aibo🤣
Bruceps When Eskom’s EAF is a paltry 49%, it really boggles the mind that this poor performance is not attributed to Eskom CEO. People who’ve never run any small operation can’t lecture on operations performance. De Ruyter gave us 49% Electricity Availability Factor and NOT Mantashe.
Bruceps He is useless in any Portfolio
Bruceps Andre de Ruyter collapsed Nampak and now he successfully single-handedly finished off what was left of Eskom. South Africa 🇿🇦 must never forgive this chap
Bruceps When did Gwede became the energy minister & when did loadshedding started What's minister Gordhan's job? De Ruyter,what's his job
Bruceps What is pravin’s job if that is the case?
Bruceps Predictable media house.Fuck
Bruceps That man must get fired. He is actually the cause of allot of crap in SA but it seems he is protected by the president. When will we actually see a difference in SA for the better. My family is being torn apart as has many others due to this messed up Anc
Bruceps So Pravin must take no blame
Bruceps A full plate of stools to thank the man who gave you your favourite president. Carry on, he is now useless to you guys post Nasrec
Bruceps Let them finish each other. They've been selling us to their handlers. The 2nd Term in the ANC is full of betrayal and drama. It's only the beginning.
Bruceps Definition of a hit piece. Damn 🙆🏽♂️🙆🏽♂️🙆🏽♂️
Bruceps He is a threat in the imagination of some journalists/reporters... Remember something called Cabinet collective?
Bruceps Gwede is a threat to himself
Bruceps Pravin and De Ruyter?
