Eskom lost R22 billion from illegal connections

Illegal connections cost Eskom R22 billion in revenue last year, with one province accounting for R7 billion in lost revenue.

And politically, nothing can be done about this. R22bn gone. Written off.

 

[Bewlen]

Eskom didn't lose a single cent. Taxpayers do.

 

[RonSwanson]

Rules for some but not for others.
Lekker racism!

Eskom/SAPS/ANC failure costs Eskom lost R22 billion from illegal connections​

FTFY

Finally some truth is being revealed. If R7 billion/annum of electricity is being stolen in Gauteng causing 2 stages of load shedding then one can surmise that the remaining R15 billion/annum is adding another four stages.

Electricity theft is causing about 6 stages of load shedding in total.

I like your logic. Don't forget us law abiding citizens are the low hanging fruit, ESKOM just screams up the electricity price by 18% so we pay. MOTHER FSCKERS.

They turn a blind eye to this but want to use tax money to restrict the paying connections. And people say I should be happy to be restricted? All I see is well cooked froggies in a pot.

The chickens are coming home to roost.
Promoted the CULTURE OF NON PAYMENT.
Now no one wants to pay.

 

[Pineapple Smurf]

Of course nothing will be done
Can't upset the majority voters now

 

[Pegging]

The ANC need to update their website.

Let’s build better communities. Together.

Instead of SANDF sitting on their fat arses at the power stations doing nothing, they should instead travel around with the Eskom workers who are trying to do their jobs cutting off illegal connections like in Marlboro but can't because of thugs, so send in the proper thugs with live ammo, none of this rubber bullet ****.

 

[Solver]

Just one of many taxpayer funded anc vote buying schemes

 

[quovadis]

Eskom should have a bounty program for illegal connections/tampering.

 

[TelkomUseless]

Eskom should have a bounty program for illegal connections/tampering.

Then they will lose their voters. Have to give stuff for free to stay in power...

And Eskom wants to install remote devices to shut off geysers instead of fighting illegal connections. Haha... fcking clowns and anc voters are clowns too.

No SOE would ever do this, the majority of the scums are ANC voters
Can't upset them now
Would be unfair
