‘Dangerous’ if ANC, energy minister choose Eskom boss
Neither has expertise or capability, says Chamber of Commerce and Industry's Alan Mukoki
Political interference has created the Eskom crisis and the last thing the country needs is for minister of energy Gwede Mantashe or the ruling party to be involved in the appointment of outgoing CEO Andre De Ruyter's successor, says CEO of the South African Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SACCI) Alan Mukoki.
“I heard the minister for energy, who apparently will be given oversight over Eskom, say the ANC will be involved in the appointment of the next CEO. We disagree strongly with that.
