CAPE TOWN - The Minister of Mineral Resources and Energy, Gwede Mantashe, highlighted the severe impact of load shedding saying it cost the country’s economy R1 billion per day.
Mantashe reflected on the severe electricity supply disruptions and their impact on the country, particularly in 2022. Mantashe said that despite this, the mining company Goldfields managed to increase its production due to reforms in the energy sector that permitted embedded energy generation.
As of you care.
Whatever!! Repeat what others have been saying!!!
'nuf said
Oh my!!! He's intelligent 🙄
leonmlouw Brought about by ANC policy
The ANC is the cause of it Couldn't even at least maintain the country
PetersWonderboy But your dizzy comrades don't give a shit 😕 But when whites call them imfene then they cry foul 🤷🏾♂️
Powerless. Only has balls for his party members.
Legacy of the VoetsekANC
Loadshedding is so expensive while it adds no value to SA's economy.
Now stop it Mantashe.
The ANC is in overdrive. Firing on all cylinders. ... after ...
That time they want to spend a billion on a team that’s worth billions 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Who calculated the loss and how, he must also share that infor, it's important
Wow, why he doesn't resign as a sign of selfless act that we trusted him with this job to find solutions for us and not to give us this heartbreaking stats because they proof we're Leader less in that portfolio🤔
Why don't u pack your bags, run along and go spit on someone else who will believe your lies
Hello, people want jobs and are tired of hearing about load shedding for the past 5 years. Why not make solar energy everywhere in South Africa
Maaaaaaaal yeah
Lol the irony, the architects of this disaster, commenting on what we already know
And he’s part of the problem.
Should have thought of that before entertaining the Guptas. Will never recover what crosses below the bridge
Quikedt most painless way to save R1bn per day......Get rid of Gwede the greedy.
You complain about it but do nothing for the people of SA!!
Direct or indirect costs? it’s only making doing business more expensive and shedding jobs where smaller companies can’t afford to operate in the new normal
And still nothing is done about it
They cost the damage, now they are complaining, who are they want to blame? The apartheid regime?
They don't care, as long their pockets are well looked after, they don't care, they actually fight for our freedom with a price to destroy our lives and fill they pockets
Waaaaaaow, how’d he work that out?🙄
okay?
ANC success is the load shedding app !!! The perverted notion of bringing success to failure, you chop…
If our economy loses 1billion a day , so turns more we would not have load shedding.
Bullshit dude, how do you know the number!!!
Nope the cANCer does!
Mr Mantashe, your are responsible for this situation! You are the minister for …energy!
Telling us something we already know is off no use, what are you doing about it.
The cost to tax payers for cader deployment. VoetsekANC
Well done Greedy, are you busy bragging? 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🐷🐷🐷🐷
And Still nothing gets done!
And what are you doing bout it?
And your point is GwedeMantashe1 ? We are experiencing this loss daily. Fix it instead of trying to create smokescreen and mirrors.
Mantashe you must be so proud
Let the problem be fixed
Stage 3? It's exactly the same as stage 4. Only sounds better for eskom
How much does he costs us per day for none performance?
Where are those agencies why not downgrading is if we loose Billions a day
That is what Cyril wants
Well you and your useless comrades are 100% responsible for the mess
But think of the money the tenderpreneurs are making via their overcharging for coal.
In protest you should resign if you feel what is happening to this country's electricity grid, is nothing else but a work of criminals, otherwise your words are a worst of space if there is nothing tangible you can do about situation.
Forgive him he just recently found out. Everyone's in the dark!
That's too much about you nd others live the SANKARA way to reduce Gov't expenses on your self serving, greedy life's? It causes an average SAn STRESS,DEPRES ION nd to be wonderes in their land with no water, security, thus making them R350 dependents.
The ANC government is full of commentators without solutions
Who is economy? Some people are loaded man ah!!
What an achievement for the ANC!
Kukhona babonayo where do they come from?How many lives have been lost due to loadshedding tatu GwedeMantashe uphumama especially last year 🤔
And he is part of the problem by dragging his heals about the IPPs coming board. He has done nothing to help resolve the issues at Eskom.
its cost me R5bil a day .
Then stop load shedding ghe Mantashe, hao
But the tax payer has to be burdened so that grants are paid MYANC
Says an ANC deployment with a free generator and diesel for life.. VoetsekANC
They Removed People That Made Sure That We Don't Get Load Shedding In President Zuma , Brian Molefe And Matsela Koko. Dr Ben Ngubane Even Warned Them .
... should also say 'but I never miss a salary'
So if there’s no load shedding ,the economy is about 32Bn a month(correct me if I’m wrong) ? So why exactly do we borrow money from other countries
We know, so what are you doing about it as a “Minister” 🤦♀️ nothing!
Shouldn't he tell us something we don't know? You know something like...uhm like his plan to end loadshedding?🤷
ConstructMgmt
1 Billion a day and you're unable to come with a plan to fix it? Must be nice being you guys
I haven't heard anyone mentioning Jamnandas who is the Minister of Eskom. Gweezy is the Minister of mineral resources of mines and natural resources he is not responsible for Load Shedding. Pravin must account for this but he is no where to be seen as SOE Minister.
Domestic terrorists!
Wow. He realises
Corruption costs SA much more
Well mantashe you and your comrades are the cause
And not one cent of it comes from Cyril and his motley crew.
And how much does the unchecked, rampant, tag-team of corruption between the private sector & their accomplices in government cost the state daily ...? Can we get those numbers?
Oh damn 😳 Including tourism?
But we have it anyway.
But they still not doing anything about it
Bloody Eskom
The money ANC should be giving to an English football team 🤦♂️
The only reason why Eskom is loosing R1 billion a day is because that is what is being pocketed buy the ANC and Eskom executives. Eksom needs to be heavily audited, so we can uncover the truth behind loadshedding.
Naira ?
Pity we can not go back to dealing with issues the old-fashioned way...like a wall. They should all be lined up for treason!
At least that amount... sort out the deep seated corruption. Transport contracts, coal quality, sabotage..etc..
And your part of the problem.
I pray you guys don't become other African Countries with failed leadership bcos no nation in this continent of Africa will be ready to accommodate your citizens. bitterTruth
Why is he telling us about something we know?
Congratulations
this man acts like some other ppl created the problems that we’re in….. we are the 🤡 here
And water is wet... This nicely orchestrated plan, underpinned by habitual neglect of service is playing out nicely. It's the only explanation for the Eskom problem and their snickering reluctance over the years to act, resulting in the disastrous situation we have now.
Impossible number given the size of the economy
This guru said it best:
Courtesy of 28 years ANC looting and mismanagement. What an embarrassment to the citizens of this country.
Who told him this?
No shit, Sherlock. Now they're catching on to what they have done to this country. This is why the clowns must not run the circus.
Then DO something about it!
Really?
Maybe he wants us to congratulate him and the comrades for this achievement... Maybe later when the power comes back.
1 bn a day so can we not use this 1 bn collect it towards re: eskom repairs
Fire Mantashe!!!
And yet it is has been allowed to continue. Money wasted, the problem known, much talk and zero action to resolve the issue.
So is it only worrying him Now ?
Ai khona🤣🤣
We know how livelihoods are affected and we can quantity it. Please tell us about the number of lives lost
Sbwl bona the formula with all appliance being damage by the electricity surge when power is restored , cable theft during load shedding … can you guys please share the formula to come up to the estimate?
20/03 Shutdown should not be a problem country already losing billions
Really? What gave you that idea? 🤡
Who is paying this billion and to whom?
yeah.. we know. you f**ked it up. go and get a real job..
And you are part of the problem
Why is he telling us that as if we the one's making dodgy dealings?
How can one of the main role players in the creation of this scenario stand with a straight face and and tell us this!!!mind boggling
And he is the cause of it …….
Yes because of your poor and clueless leadership. We need fresh minds. This bunch of old people in the leadership must be removed. They must go enjoy their last days/ years on earth and play with their grandchildren.
Then what is he and the others doing about it? How many billions have been lost?
Why are we still employing and paying these speech makers nothing affects them their lives go on ,on the never ending gravy train
As you can see... No shame.... his salary gets paid no matter what , if he delivers or not.. He is not concerned , if you believe he is concerned or ashamed of this, then you suffer from a mental illness and are thus qualified enough to be an anc member.
In other words - The ANC is costing South Africa 1bn per day! Voetsek ANC!
ANC corruption obo Eskom is costing 1 bn a day.
Plumping for his ncinci in the Karpowerships and Rosatom nuke bombs, after having set it all in motion through the sabotage by his unions, and his cadre cronies milking coal and diesel dry.
Yes GwedeMantashe1 do you also know policians cost South Africa billions billions in take bribes and being corrupt in their duties!! Tell us who did your security upgrades at your houses and how much was the cost ?
Don't worry, he means his own business interests are losing a R1bn per day
why is he telling it to us the public
Just coming up the number will not help
Let the litigation begin.
Isn’t it time businesses start putting in claims to SA government for the loss of income.
Given that GwedeMantashe1 is responsible for building new power plants since becoming Minister he just admitted that he has cost SouthAfrica over a trillion rand - he is not a passive observer - the is where the buck stops - gwedemustgo
They will never fix eskom nor any new power because it's ANC cadres only and that is why ANC government will always hold onto bbeee policies, it's a ticket for Cadres black fronts with all the non whites and foreigners ANC cadres owning it from the rear
And then? This the ANC who caused the problem, now sitting outside and passing comments, they try to make it seem someone else was in charge of government for 29 years
looks like Mbeki's old Shirt 😂
Camelaas on . lights off , scene 2 from load shitting bull.
Was 'nt he who told Cyleel 2 Plse Stay ?
Ei this Ntate, jesssesss!!
Thanks for stating the obvious. Root cause is the ANC. Greed, corruption, mafia tactics. What are they up to next?
No Gwede. Your incompetency, greed and corruption is doing so. Eskom and cp are mere tools. Best thing you could do is just leave. See how quickly we will change things
Is South Africa going to send aid to Turkey 🇹🇷?
He's bragging
Uthule uthini mqundu wakhe🚮 nesisu esikhulu
,,
And boy is he making sure it doesn't end anytime soon.
Oh wow and this mamparra came up with such a statement? Wow, where was he rhe past 10 years? Give this man a Bells.
The ANC is costing South Africa R1Billion a day
Socialism has cost South Africa trillions.
TshepoMashilo4 Lies
Bragging about what you didn't do?
And yet there's sponsored fake outrage over R1billion in 3yrs with realistic and attainable ROI projections.
You and your looters ANC created this load shedding .. you talk always as if you are not in power , u look for sympathy..you still think u a liberation movement.. no u are not , take accountability and fix the mess u created .. stop telling what we know
It's because they have no skills and vision to rule the country...this one can't even connect electronically cables
Not a mention about small businesses
Talking won’t solve the issues what are you going to do
I honestly don’t get why they tell us such while they are the cause of the same problem
He says it like the loadshedding was not caused by the ANC. I suppose this comment was made to make way for Karpower. Lol
And government is doing nothing to the SCM of Eskom
Loadshedding costs SA a Tottenham Hotspurs per day....
Duh. Thanks for highlighting the obvious. Mind doing your job solving it ?
You won't even find that amount of zeros on Malema's report card
Madala jy is dronk and yet you and your colleagues wanna take 1bln and give it to Tottenham
Lux are we will collapse the economy by marching
Then how did the ANC allow losing 1 billion a day to happen? Loadshedding has been going on for over a decade. It started even before Mr Zuma become president.
Just go on pension grannie
GwedeMantashe1 MYANC GovernmentZA CyrilRamaphosa PresidencyZA BECAUSE YOU CAUSED THIS PROBLEM!!!!! HOW MANY BUSINESSES AND LIVELIHOODS HAVE YOU DESTROYED!!!!! YOU WILL ANSWER TO THE ALMIGHTY!!!!!
R365bn pa urinated away into the SA sloot by these ANC troopers. No skaam , no remorse. Sies.
The collateral damage is multiples of that.
Mr Mantashe, you are so wrong....The ANC cost the country far more than just rands and cents (Read billions) The hardship you have/are causing is killing us.
GwedeMantashe1 still punting for your family to get karbaships?
Based on whaat calculations?
What is he doing to stop this nonsense?
Loadshedding problem was created by ANC and their voters.
Oh well done Gwede for letting us know, we had no idea 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Progress is your mouths not the country
All thanks to yourself and your anc buddies and cadres deployment
And you are to blame VETGAT
Mantashe direct contributor to South Africa's energy crisis. What a hypocrite.
Does he care
So desperate for that Kar deal. Just another useless cadre in thieving ANC.
No shit
Is this the same 1billion they wanted to take to England,wow ANC thinks we are fools ne
What's new?
That's a joke. He hasn't added in the cost of investments fleeing the land, of businesses closing and lost opportunities. The cost to young people who for who it's now 4 x harder to try and pull themselves out of poor education & poverty and whose lives and futures are destroyed.
Of course it does. They removef conpetent people over imaginary state capture
Speak to New Dawn
So fix the bloody power
Gwwde Mantashe is such a hopeless case
Dom doos
Yet they are doing nothing about it since 2007, it is now in the voter's hands & the electorate cant be taken serious by these politicians if they dont hold them to account.
Whose fault is this anyway? Nobody!!
Wonder how this was calculated!! What about the rotten food in fridges, gastro as a result, and damage to appliances with all the insane power surges!!! What about the cost of inverters, diesel, solar… blah blah …
BUSA has been saying the loss amounts to R6 billion every stage 6 loadshedding. How do they compute these figures and who is lying between BUSA and lobaba wezimpahla eziningi?
GwedeMantashe1 not load shedding, no, no, no, it’s the anc costing the country 1 billion a day. It’s in your watch that its happening. You have done nothing after all the warnings. Can not wait to see very humbled cadres next year.
We are nearly paid off the dept of Loan mos
Yet it’s been going on for years and jack shit has been done to fix the problems.
Why is he telling us this?
Thanks, Captain Fucking Obvious.
Why isn’t he accusing someone of treason again because of the continued load shedding?
Nice one, that is one thing the ANC definitely does well at… Breaking everything they touch and wasting hard earned public funds. How people still vote for the government that is burning our country to the ground is beyond me.
Then what're doing about it? Nazi ukudl ugologo nje nomlomo opetukile nx! Gha!
This corrupt government is always 'saying' and doing nothing!! Useless!!
He ses with pride.
AND YOU STILL PART OF THE CRIMINAL ANC
And someone is getting very rich from selling diesel used during load shedding Mr Mantashe🤔
We already knoww vho'msunu.
The very same eskom is losing money during loadshedding
W have money mos
Well done Gwede!
So?
Ok,what is he going to do about it ?
Load shedding is just the symptom. An awful consequence of bad government actions and policies over time. It's those root causes that are costing the economy. And mostly it can be attributed to bad decisions, incompetence and corruption. An easy fix if there is a will ...
Like he isn’t part of the problem… we F….know it.. him and his delinquents caused it!
What's the meaning of that sir, please give the nation a solutions not dreams
loadshedding started 2008 -- so in 15 years they never saw this coming?
Because of anc cadre deployed corruption and incompetence!
It looks like a tiger is distancing itself 4rm a buffalo Timing Just like he did 2 butternut
no rather say corrupt anc cost SA R1 billion a day
The real state capture at it's best
Ferezarams If we didn’t lose it to loadshedding we would still lose it to ANC corruption… kyafana.
All because of him. What a douche.
So look in the mirror Gwede, who is responsible? Your useless government.
And they say we must focus on going to work and school, to then it's business as usual
You can see Greedy is looking into the future. Salivating over those kickbacks from the Russians
And the ANC costs the economy 2 billion per day
but Pravin Gordhan and De Reuyter still have their positions
Ok and then?
Ubaba kabani lo vele
South Africans never learn. That's their problem. Take care of your family and have a plan to make money internationally. Anc is here to stay and citizens have proven you that. Stop crying like little babies and man up. Take action or stop complaining
And he is responsible.
And million small businesses close per day
And you realise this only now?
Useless information
So let's do the math. We've had loadshedding for Years now, but let's just focus on one year; R1bn multiplied by 365 days is how much? 🤷😭
What's he doing about it?
Then fix it..
What is he doing about it as the energy minister?
All caused by the anc
And the tender money in his pocket
So you shot yourselves in the foot? Backwards thinking ne?
How did he measure that. Tigers can’t count that high.
Bet he thumb sucked this figure and threw it out, like hazenile.
A problem he and his party created. Continue to worsen.....
TimModise The prob is not really 'coal'..It's that it's total mismanagement and corruption of the supply chain due to caderism, coupled with a majority openly encouraged to steal with no consequence...criminals exactly like the ANC it holds up.
No just say Anc
And?
Wow, the man is finally thinking 🤔
With the 'Apartheid years' like you like to call it, THERE WAS NEVER LOADSHEDDING!!! WHY IS THAT! THIS IS CAUSE OF CHEAP MAINTENANCE!!, ANC MUST FALL!! THEY FAILED SA!!
Thanks to him and the anc gangsters
I billion a day down the drain because of maladministration
Yet he's done nothing all these years to resolve it...how rich 🙄 🤬😡😡😡...to even have the audacity to say it is an insult to SAns
Add another 1 billion for unseen and future nje
And yet they are still looting what remains
SouthAfricansP1 And he says it without any sense of irony
Why not fixing it?
You and your party are costing SA 1bn a day.
What about this you recently give away to English premier league?
Let IPPs sell to municipalities because gov has failed
The current crop of comrades are trying to distance themselves from culpability. They will get away with it , SANS aren't the brightest.
And?What’s he going to do about it?
TimModise And he and his merry band of ANC scoundrels are to blame
Stating the obvious those not make u smart
Ohhhhh so money laundering in other words? Nice
Are we playing a game of state the obvious? Yipeee!
GwedeMantashe1 Unbelievably a lot of money , did You only realize it now hence all the small businesses closing down,people getting retrenched whilst you guys dance around
And all the inconvenience to peoples lives
Can't admit that he is stale ...and can't take us forward? Surely he has a sufficient pension package by now...but no...wants more, story of our African leadership, old and stale
It's fine 🙂
cANCer government cost South Africa...
You so proud to announce it you crooks.
The ANC always acts like they are not the cause of these problems. Denial...denial
Call that Tottenham sponsorship
Fix it larney
R365B a year 🤨.
I wonder if is as good with numbers as Zuma was?
The very same R1 billion they want to give to Tottenham
So what is he doing about it....?
Then do your job man
The Dunning Kruger effect!
Well what a discovery!!!! We have been having load shedding for some years. Did you not know this way back when it started
Fusek who cares
does this thung even care probably cant even fukn spell his name
ChizeeKay_Rsa I only support mantashe when it comes to the issue of the country to continue using coal.
This guy is in the dark
The same R1b which made noise with Tottenham. I support the Tourism Board
Anc cost the nation 1b/d
So what! Who caused this $h!t?
Work close with mashatile
And yet you all are attempting to stand on the way for a R1 billion Tottenham sponsorship to try boost tourism 🤷🏾♂️
R365 billion per annum
What next
Does this guy know he is responsible for that
Only 🤔 Can't be. That's not what the stellenbosch minions said during Zuma administration.
Yes, and he is a major cause of it. What's his plan of action?
And what is he doing about it? Nothing but talk and considering corrupt deals!
The MYANC criminality with their chancellor house fraud is costing the economy R1 billion a day. He is telling us to do what? Food I cannot afford to replace is rotting and he tell the nation this, as if it is a badge of honour?
It is the ANC that has bled South Africa to death. Everything the ANC has touched has turned to shit. And it’s the ANC black majority that have been there helping them all the way.
you can sponsor 365 premier league sides... you biscuit...
GwedeMantashe1 makes it sound as if he and his corrupt colleagues haven’t had a hand in this mess. Give me a break MYANC!! Elections2024
I'm so glad he just rounded it off to 1 billion! I would hate to listen to him stumbling around 1 billion, 700 hundred million, 77 million, 900 million and 7 million. Listen carefully.
I don't know what this guy's do all day really because working is not if there where working they can't afford to loose 1 blillion a day never what are you doing in those offices and heavy title 'Minister of energy'for who? For what?
And who's fault is that GwedeMantashe1... no planning at all, corruption and unethical practices at every corner. It's MYANC costing the economy R1bn ler day due to looting and Cadre deployment
Really? And he's happy to announce
But the rand is stable is because Cyril is a President if it was Zuma ey ngoba nina
Mara when r u dying so we can live better🤦
ANC government failure costs us more.
Since when
Does he take any medication?
I'm no ANC fan but it sounds like he just made that figure up.
He has three ships he wants to dock on our shores. Same as JanvR.
ANC is costing S.A millions of jobs
Then fix it you half wit
Breaking news: Correction. The anc costs this country a billion plus per day.
Moron
But he doesn’t want to give Eskom license to buy cheaper wholesale prices diesel. Hypocrite
You mean THE ANC is costing SA R1BN a day --- ONLY via loadshedding!!
And whose fault is it exactly... Surely yours, GwedeMantashe1 and MYANC... takesomeresponsibilityforonce
Maar is dit nie jou skuld ook nie?
Load shedding that was caused by him and his comrades.
And?
If only we knew who was responsible.
Do your job, and it won't cost that much - Mantashe
lira12_joy I still have my R0.56 bank balance how does it come to cost the whole SA a billion which 90% of citizens never realize
And yet they are going nowhere with fixing the problem
Sorry let’s rephrase that “ANC costs SA’s economy R1bn per day” genius
Same bloody Money could have been feeding the hungry How many more jobs are being lost due to business unable to survive without power Then we all think why crime so high some ppl out there are taking advantage YES BUT THERE ARE MANY ACTUALLY STARVING
Instead of telling us solutions, batshela ama problems that are clear to everyone, ungazibuza why are these people getting paid, nxaaaaa
What are they doing about this. Now we as South Africans need to Demand consistent electricity supply from Eskom
It's not like they care.
Do something about it Mantashe. Useless.
This obese, corrupt prick must Voetsek!
We will be able to sponsor the entire English premiership in a couple of weeks should we be able to en load “shetting”….
This hootkop is the bumb as a bag of cat shit
Yet, we have unqualified people in key positions
So it's safe to say we've lost almost 100bln Rand's under their renewal
Destroying colonialism one SOE at a time!
No, that's not true The incompetent Andre de ruyter is costing the country billions
So how long does it take the minister of coal to find this out?. Watch KAPOWERSHIP DEAL and follow the money a 20 year deal ?
Like saying to someone you have cancer without providing a treatment or cure. Stating the loss is useless. Shows how useless the politicians are. We know how bad it is.
And what's he doing about it, absolutely nothing
And Mantashe is part of the blame...
That's what ANC wanted 😭😭😭😭😭
Exactly. And knowing this you still did nothing since 2008. This one is on you MYANC
Thank you Minister and our beloved Government…😎
Mantashe doesn’t give a damn how much load shedding costs
This is not new, how many days have we had load shedding and X
So what are you going to do, mantashe? And stop making promises you can't keep!
And you are so proud to announce that !!!!
Are you telling us anything we don't know..We are not stupid...you effed up Mantashe with you interfererence etc.
Zuma did everything in his power to keep the lights on but you guys made sure that he vacates the office because you do not care about anyone but yourselves.
And yet GwedeMantashe1 is one of biggest barriers to independent power producers getting licenses
Mantashe ....
Prepping us for Karpower deal
So WTF are you going about it you flipping oxygen thief..😡😡🤬🤬
Who the fck asked him anything!? Even a child can tell you that!
Isn’t it his MYANC costing us that much?
And what is he going to do?
Brought to you with compliments of the ANC……and not one person in the ANC has been brought to book!
Yet De Ryter is seating pretty with his useless RIPP’s witbank fat cheque every month
Look who's talking?
ANC COSTS SA’s economy R1billion per day through load shading. Confessed Mantashe.
So now we have a cost estimate of the cost of state capture....
In a crisis situation there is always an opportunity. Who is cashing in💸? Liyakubani I Billion?
Where have you, Mantashe, been for the past decade? Amazing observation.
Yes we know it's costing us, seems like everyone is a reporter, whats the solution Baba Mantashe? Nami ngifuna ukuba nesisu eskhulu nje ngawe ngidli nyama kodwa iyabola...
Why are you telling us this you guys must just tsek$&&
So, what's a billion extra for the tourism cadres?
In revenue or ?
Lunga_Masango It looks like he underestimated the costs.
Hello ! You are part of the problem not the solution
🙈 And tell us something we don't know.
And what are you doing about it
Mantashe is useless- we need some Do’ers.
You mean to say that 'The minster of Energy and the ANC is costing SA R1 Billion a day'
Anc wants state of disaster so they may post pone elections, they won't fix Eskom.
Vs how much diesel costs per day to cover loadshedding?
Wow you only just realized this now did he think south Africans were just protesting and complaining because we felt like it
Such a revelation. But MYANC you have watched the country bleed R1bn a day and have done nothing but impoverish and destroy our beautiful country. Probably a sick game plan to force SA to accept a costly alternative to fix it.
What he is doing to stop this cost
And who can we thank? People like GwedeMantashe1!
ANC's lack of Leadership and will power to implement is costing the country R1bn...
....it's more than that!!!!
voetsekkarpowership
Then why is he doing nothing to alleviate loadshedding. Why is he actively fighting against solutions?
Fokof!!!
And who do we have to thank.We only need one guess🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Who's fault is that
...and who do we have to thank...ANC...that's who.
What an achievement! Way to go, Gwede! Aside: KarpowershipSA still steaming along aft?
It's mind boggling how the ruling party refers to themselves as a third person when reporting on government matters. Are they aware They are accountable and responsible for these issues.
GwedeMantashe1 surely you should have these projections before not during. You deserve a reality show 🤞🏽
And Uncle Gwede, what are you doing about it ? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
But still, the ANC makes sure to carry on with it while trying to fix the problem 'met bloudraad en ñ knyptang' instead of replacing incompetence with competence? It boggles the mind.
Mara wena o nonne like a bonsmara
Per day 😳
So why is it implemented?
High treason
AMAAANDLA BLACK EXCELLENCE AMAANDLA!!!!✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
…and the fact that he himself is partly responsible for this crisis is lost on him …unbelievable
Yet another failed anc minister who contributed to the state our country is in . We don't have confidence in these corrupt people. The sooner we boot them out, the better for all South Africans.
For 10 marks sir. Please show your work. And for additional 10 marks, please provide your solution
Laying the public opinion groundwork for the Karpowership deal in which many backs will be scratched and many footsie footsies will occur under the grand table of corruption. Just more of the same in our wonderful kleptocracy
Still hasn’t commissioned a single MW
He sounds like a very proud communist!
It's a choice
PresidencyZA put Eskom_SA under DMRE & let Minister Mantashe do his job unhindered
Thanks to you Madala. Why don't you take pension now? Let the young blood occupying that position which you have miserably failed.
OMG AND YOU SAY IT?
No shit Sherlock. Load shedding is worse than COVID
So they can't give eskom a few billion, or allow exemption from fuel taxes to help reduce load shedding
So do something about it Mantashe.
Well done ANC
I'm shocked, says Ramaphosa.
If that were the case,something would've been done to end it,but instead the leading party and the legislative that leads are benefiting significantly and loving every minute of it
Not loadshedding, incompetency🤬
All because of you and your Thieving ANC
Fix it then!
This country is a sitcom but I've already run out of popcorn. I'll get some more to see what comes from the R900m to Tottenham deal but the loadshedding thing has been going on for too long now.
How much of it is he and his cronies getting or have gotten with all the corruption that is in the systems from coal to sale of power to the people? We are not here just because of poor decisions and management. There should be a full audit of every aspect of this disaster
Can he show us the calculations
Surely such a serious statement requires a credible reference source. Ask him for it. Otherwise it's just magic thinking that we are accustomed to.
I think more.
Correction, the MYANC 's load shedding is costing the country R1bn per day. Don't blame your useless party's inefficiencies on the whole country.
This dude is a poepal...
lira12_joy His hands are tied.
Is that how much they were putting in their pockets, the last 29 years?!
So every 7 days they lose the same amount as the annual diesel budget? That's so dreadful, I literally want to cry for families and small businesses.
Exactly
We'll lose R365 billion by the end of the year.
Ok
Has he only realized that fact NOW? Time for him to go.
Like it's an achievement, coming from the person that supposedly runs the place Sad.very sad. They have no shame or disgust .
His own fault. 28 years to sort this kak out. Useless individual that cashed in on deals
No wonder Sars is on a rampage. Screw the consumer even more.
Taxpayers must pay we must get rid of this incompetent cadres
Allegedly we have a Minister of Energy who refuses to open up the sector to alternative means of energy production because it does not benefit his own pocket. he wants to indebt us to an agreement that is spearheaded by his wife for 20 years.
The ANC costs SA R1billion per day ….there fixed it
They're even proud to announce it.
You mean…”this man and his mates cost SA etc”
Yet we just gave away R1bn to Tottenham Hotspur for absolutely no reason at all.
Stop your assignment to kill the middle class and fix the energy crisis. We are tired of these games
ANC costs SA's economy R1 billion a day. FIFY
so fix the problem
Proudly brought to you by our Criminal Organization the ANC
And you did squat about..
Your party’s incompetence costs the SA economy R 1bn per day and a whole lot more.
And will keep on costing +R1 Billion more if this clown is still allowed to be at the head...... Scary to think where we will be if NDZ takes over...🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
And who caused that.
No shit Sherlock!! Welcome to the party
Go retire and get a golden handshake in peace, cause that's what what's the ANC is all about, enrichment beyond reproach, while the citizens are suffering
Are you proud of your party’s achievement Gwede? I would be ashamed.
And, what have you done to prevent this? Absolutely nothing. Useless
The ANC is costing us this
And the ANC is PROUD of WHAT you and your CARDRE's have achieved . jislike , SHAME on YOU Guy's . SHAME . Ne .
You all love the Life style and status but non of you take the responsibility? So much money has been wasted. There are not enough tax payers to keep cleaning up this governments mess. When the rich leave this country you are f*cked see what hand-outs you will keep getting?
you so old you can not even speak but you whant to run eskom burn down eskom and build it from the beginnig and se if you and your people can do that i dont fink so it whas given for free to fuk it up like you do in the hole south africa useless
🤣🤣🤣 kudlaliwe ngathi🤦🏿
No 💩 hey Like we Don't know this really
Well you were all fortold about the situation and given plans on how to grow ,maintain and mitigate it. Instead of investing in more reliable and renewable ways of doing it you all let it rot and waste money. Step down you have done enough damage
Thank you GwedeMantashe1 for your service. You had 7 years to add new energy to the grid, and you failed. Another reason that the MYANC will not get more than 40%. You will fail to fix the crisis. You are not capable
He means that the ANC is costing the country that amount, they messed our country these guys
He's being conservative
So basicaly it will cause 365 billions till they sort it out after 12 months
Far greater than some diesel.
No , not loadshitting, the ANC !!!
How is this progressing? Does the Minister have an update?
Just a slight correction there... GwedeMantashe1 costs SA R1b per day.
The slay queen tiger must resign.
Nice....So what are YOU doing about that?
And? What are you lot going to do about it? Apart from line your pockets?
On his tab
No shit.
On he's watch as minister. That whole party is just a huge useless disgrace.
Accused 1
He must fix it!!!!!! For F*** sakes he is the major shareholder
What are you doing about it as government. It's no use for a government official to tell us these instead of avoiding these losses
Why is this such a revelation.
Minister of the Energyless
It costs you stuff all because you don't care
eskomsalaryshedding over 40 000 employees and nobody can fix the problem, let's start salary shedding at Eskom and see how quickly they fix this problem. ESKOMSALARYSHEDDING maybe Governmentsalaryshedding as well. MORE LIES AND BS FROM ESKOM & GOVERNMENT. Retweet please
Get your headline correct for a change. “ANC costs SA’s economy R1bn per day”.
But it's under you watch that it has happened!? So you saying your failures are costing us that much. So in other words you should step down, it's your fault and you have failed. Get lost and stop acting like you weren't warned years ago.
NO!!!! That headline should read 'The ANCancer is costing the economy R1bn per day'
Ne phuza face
MYANC costs South Africa ZAR 1B per day, ey GwedeMantashe1 ?
Thess people! What is he doing about it?
I will not even mention it if I was you. Your department have simply failed to ensure that the once best and lowest cost performing power operator in the world was maintained and upgraded. In any top company the lack of capital investment would have had dire consequences for u
Maar doen julle fokkers iets daaraan.
Then stop Loadshedding then simpel as THAT
We know fuckface, do something about it!
And the moral of the story is 😳
VoetsekANC
No shit sherlock, you proud of this shit ?
Rich coming from one of the main architects of he current situation 😡😡😡😡😡
And the ANC Government sees nothing wrong about that🥴
Wow! How profound! Really? I'm shocked and so too is Pinnochio and his band of merry ANC govt thieves and looters
Andithi nidla imali masela ndini norhwaphilizo
Usayibalisa?
But you wanted to stick with old systems and don't want to go for Solar or Wind farm power. You as the energy minister should think ahead of time and not in the moment
So? Tell us something we dont already know 🤷🏾♂️
