.Speaking to guests, Mashatile said government was making strides in addressing load shedding, ensuring energy security, enhancing logistics systems, and improving ports and rail networks.
“The Minister of Electricity has been working very hard, and some of you might have heard him saying he is working himself out of a job because he is going to end load shedding. So I said to him: ‘No, you are not working yourself out of a job because once you have ended load shedding, you must plan for another 10 years.”
“As I stand before you today, as a nation, we are looking forward to the general election on 29 of May 2024. Given that many have registered political parties and aspire to serve in Parliament and the legislatures, I believe many will agree that this election is arguably the most important.”It has been 13 days since the power utility suspended load shedding, the longest period without power cuts this year.
