President blames apartheid

He can also blame the Chinese for making the ANC look bad. Their GDP per capita is improving markedly and they are finishing new power plants almost weekly.
 
I must admit that, after yesterday's "war room" announcement, I was somewhat relieved that at least a plan was to be considered.

After just watching the etv news, I'm suddenly extremely depressed AGAIN.

If he's the best for President, we have no hope.

I guess we had to have the worst...some or other time.
 
Words fail me. He actually blamed the load shedding on "institutionalised racism". What poor leadership this man has. The infrastructure is failing because of poor planning and lack of maintenance, but instead of identifying the problem and facing it head on, encouraging everyone to pull together and reassuring the nation by outlining a concrete plan, he chooses instead to sow more division. Can he really be this stupid?

Well articulated. My thoughts exactly.
 
It normally takes 5 years for most African countries to wreck the infrastructure left to them by their predecessors...it took 20 years for the CNA to wreck what was handed over to them....shows what an excellent infrastucture was left to them by the previous "regime" !!
 
Me wants to start a thread on, who is to blame.

At work we are not allow to say the word , incompetent, sitting and doing nothing, because they feel they work there uttermost best.
I think with the political connection you can add the word greed.
 
All of the ANC workers blame apartheid for anything that is wrong. Their stupid pathetic cries of racism just shows to me how they are busy oppressing any person in South Africa that is not black. I should know since I was told during the week by my stupid idiot excuse of a manager that my attitude is a problem and he will be giving me a written warning. All of this just for telling him that politics had no place in the workplace- the idiot is always talking of the ANC vs the DA where DA is always lambasted. He is apparently very involved in the ANC and somehow that seems to give him the power to treat people like a dictator. Arrogant black people in positions of power is the new norm in SA business.

President Jacob Zuma says government has taken measures to revitalise troubled state owned enterprises.

It was announced during a post cabinet briefing in Pretoria yesterday that the deputy president will oversee the turnaround of three state owned entities namely Eskom, South African Airways (SAA) and the South African Post Office.

Speaking at the Young Communist League (YCL)'s congress in Bellville today, Zuma says energy security is a key growth driver.

“Energy security has been identified as a keynote driver of our economy. We have identified and are responding to Eskom’s load shedding problem.”

At the same time, Eskom says the power grid is stable going into the weekend, meaning there is no immediate risk of load shedding over the next few days.

The utility says it has managed to improve the performance of its generation fleet during the course of the week and gas turbines are about 50 percent full.

On Thursday, government announced a turnaround strategy for the parastatal, involving a war room, a five-point plan and the participation of the private sector.

Eskom has been battling diesel shortages and financial constraints, which has led to rolling blackouts over the last few weeks.

But spokesman Andrew Etzinger says the grid is now in a much healthier state.

“The good news is that at the moment if things stay as they are, there would be a very low risk of load shedding. We are in a good position going into the weekend. But we’re also helped by the low electricity demand at this time of the year, as certain businesses wind down for the festive period.”

Zuma also told the league if it were not for apartheid, the economy would be stronger.

He has also blamed poor education outcomes, and Eskom's supply problems on the history of institutionalised racism.

Zuma has blamed the country's economic woes on apartheid.

“Nobody is explaining where these problems come from.”

He told delegates at the league's congress the reason the country's youth have performed poorly at school is because black people were deprived of quality education during apartheid.

“Now if you don’t scientifically clear these things, you give the impression that black people are generally slow thinkers, not bright.”

He says more people have electricity now than ever before, which is putting additional pressure on the national grid.

I really just shake my head and wonder some times.
I mean our Mathematics and Applied Sciences results are abysmal, you have learners going through practically a whole year without school text books and you blame apartheid, 20 years on, while you are in charge???

1+1 = 11 here

Am I being insensitive here, please, because I need to understand this.
There is absolutely no doubt apartheid played a hugely negative part, and continues to influence our society in many ways, but this lot above does not add up one little bit.

You don't need to understand it. As long as their followers/voters hear apartheid it's all they need.
 
So apartheid reduced capacity from an effective 45 MW to 24MW? Apartheid shelved all projects and stopped any further expansion and development since 1994? Apartheid defrauded and wasted all the systems in place and reduced this country to near Zim status?

Tell be another, I am starting to thing Zuma and his ANC cohorts are genetic freaks! Those that believe these idiots definitely are.

You still ask the question? The freak have a few neurons but there is no activity. It only works when his spear requests some attention when his eyes fall on another close friends daughter.

Can anyone give this freak clown the date and show him that apartheid was effectively killed since 1994? There was ample time to improve matters but year on year it just get worse. 20 years later and the clown freak blame apartheid for the economy yet he makes no reference to the corruption and fraud HE and his fracking cronies commit and the budgets they waste for all the Nkandlas et al. Someone please donate these idiots some braincells as they surely need it. Frecking ANC morons!
