F*ck them let's just start being self reliant all these guys have their fingers in pies that they will eat alone.

Holy shit u gotta be kidding another SOE🇿🇦…someone save us from the anc!

Of course he does, he wants to stick his greedy little tender fingers in the process, and ensure he can capitalise on renewables

These old men must be on Tik. Fuxk up one thing, dump it and fuxk up the next one. That unfortunate cashcow called the taxpayer will just keep paying. These people must be removed from power.

Please take not no Eskom infrastructure was damaged, destroyed or stolen in this gif. With 2 power utilities there will be double trouble.

Are you saying SA is going to fund another corruption house jusr lke the rest of the SOEs... These old geysers are smoking something now 🚬😂😂⏳🎤🔚PhalaPhalaFarmGate were are here

Just privatise Eskom and keep politicians away from it all.

No not a good idea ESKOM 2.0 must F….k OFF😡😡😡

You don't need a degree of any kind to know that this doesn't make sense. You will have two SOE's funded by the fiscas.

It's clear they can see there's rot where Gordon governs

Ai.........

More Glencore contracts

Mantashe wants to prove to South Africans that the problen is Pravin Gordhan & Andre de Ruyter at Eskom, but he is being blamed for their ineptitude. Ramaphosa is unwilling to do anything about them. I understand where Gwede comes from shame.

The first one report to jamandas and is going down the drain 🙄🙄

What is it that the current one isn't doing to that the new proposed one will do or do differently? Reinventing the wheel won't solve the current problem!

with what plants? really - where are getting the electricity plants - the sky?

ESKOM 2.0? : Mantashe suggests forming second state-owned power utility to solve energy crisis — Ramaphosa agreesAs the ANC-led government scrambles for solutions to the worsening, 14-year-old energy crisis they’ve markedly failed to arrest, Gwede Mantashe — Mineral Resources and Energy Minister and ANC National Chairperson — has suggested the answer lies in the creation of SOE public utility to compete with Eskom. Its because they pull faces in stead of learning their jobs. One dimple cannot make these stories up, how does he do it? Of the viable, quick and sustainable solutions to our power crisis, the incompetent and compromised GwedeMantashe1 suggests entrusting the same people who broke every functional SOE with establishing a power utility. They can't even repair a pothole 🤷🏾‍♂️
