Mineral resources and energy minister GwedeMantashe has told a gathering of black business leaders that he was confident that loadshedding will soon be a thing of the past.

“Many have banked on having loadshedding going into the elections and [to] use that to [campaign against the ANC], no [it is not going to happen]. By the time of the elections there won’t be loadshedding. We would’ve resolved that.”

Mantashe said there was nothing wrong to call Ramokgopa a project manager, a label that was given to Ramokgopa by critics, after he spent months as an electricity minister but did not have powers. “When the president appoints the minister of electricity, Dr Ramokgopa… [loadshedding] is a job that’s been given to him, it’s not my job. And that loadshedding is in Eskom. And therefore it is given to a person to focus on it and they call [it] project management.
