ANC votes against Eskom corruption probe​

The African National Congress used its majority in parliament on Thursday evening to vote against establishing an ad-hoc committee to probe allegations of rampant corruption and criminal cartels operating at Eskom that allegedly involve high-ranking ANC politicians.


The governing party said that parliament’s oversight mechanisms and the appointment of a minister of electricity were enough to deal with any issues at the power utility.


The 201 ANC members of parliament present at the session voted against the motion, while all 115 opposition MPs present voted for it.

Nothing to hide.

Surprise surprise..

They too busy smoking out Generyter to deal with the actual problem

Not surprising since Parliament has never been more than a rubber stamp.
Eskom corruption started on the day that the ANC rejected the request for new power stations to meet anticipated demand and the rot has spread into every aspect of the SOE.
Kusile and Medupi are the products of a crooked deal between Hitachi and Chancellor House which resulted in defective boilers that constantly break down and ensure a constant flow of cash to the connected comrades who own the contractors doing the repairs.

Its like expecting thieves to look closely at their own syphilitic dicks and everything is cool and normal.

I think that is all we need to know; the most important fact of all.

Everything else after that is just icing on the cake.

Methinks that ivory tower is too high to see anything

That phrase is usually used to refer to academics who have little connection to the real world.

In this case, MPs have little connection to the real world but it's not because they're in universities studying anything.
