Isn't it about time.
They don't look into the rot until it gets exposed by the likes of Noseweek.

ANC Probes Eskom Fat Cats

Management ‘neglected maintenance to boost profits and bonuses’

The ANC is gunning for Eskom’s top brass after an internal report quoting whistle-blowers in the utility accuses them of serious mismanagement.

The power utility also invested funds earmarked for power station maintenance in money-market instruments that falsely boosted the corporation’s financial results and earned them massive bonuses.

Industry analysts estimate that Eskom bosses were paid about R10-million in bonuses in March.

Alec Erwin defended the bonuses - “A decision was taken and we supported it because they had done well in the past financial year.”
A-hole Alec, they have obviously not been 'doing well' for a good few years now.:rolleyes:

However, Eskom spokesman Fani Zulu said the whistle-blowers’ points were “non issues” and could be explained.
Zulu added it was worrying that colleagues from Eskom would raise their concerns externally, instead of seeking clarification from within the corporation.
No very bright is Mr. Zulu :rolleyes:

Everything can be explained away and brushed neatly under the carpet. Rest assured - Eskom has always been and always will be, in capable hands. Our salaries and bonuses reflect the best quality management team that money can buy.
 
yawn, should read, "ANC probes it's deployed fatcat cadres"
 
The ANC should sweep infront of their own door first - its hard to tell who's worse government or Eskom!
