'They are in fact doing worse than the apartheid government was doing around SOEs.'

"Instead of waiting for Eskom or SAA to be R400bn - it did not just become R400bn but started small with something like R1m but got to R400bn because there is poor monitoring of objectives and targets," he said.

"If you were to ask [President] Cyril Ramaphosa what is the crisis that led to the Prasa board being put under administration, he would say, 'I am very shocked that Prasa was in crisis'. He simply does not know," said Shivambu. "He is shocked about everything happening in state companies because the state is not closely monitoring what is happening at SOEs."Under the apartheid government, either the Eskom CEO or board chairperson used to sit in cabinet meetings for constant briefings on the state of affairs of electricity provision, but currently the responsibility is given to someone without an idea of all those issues.

Nx Nx Nx Hellen Zille expressed the same views with her colonialism tweet... I wonder if the argument that the previous gorvenment only served a few still counts, 🍿

Pls go back to school, you look like the guy that cleans my garden and you speak like ur chewing a brick.

🤣🤣🤣 how would you know what was happening during apartheid?.. you were not there shivambu

You seem to know more about how Apartheid government used to run SOEs, I wonder who schooled you. Go back to your source and ask, what was the mandate of those companies and the capacity of responsibility. You will learn my son, that your comparison is way off the mark

Only realised now?

Lyk my die outjie soek geselskap,,mmmm?

Didn't Zille say somethings were right during apartheid? This statement sounds familiar but let me keep quiet

Ou bra VBS has sumtin to say

What a statement waking up from slumber good

African leaders don’t know how to run Soe’s. What difference would the eff make.

Hahahahah 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

You guys are missing the point. Floyd Shivambu his pointing out one of the reasons why SOEs are under performing and his right by saying it because there's poor monitoring when it comes to SOEs.

If white could be attacked

At least poor households who were denied electricity by his apartheid government are now electrified.

How many households are electrified post democracy as compare to pre-democracy? One cannot mention eskom while it was under apartheid regime. Not to say I'm with load shedding but let our comparisons be spot on.

Fat Faced Floyd and his revolutionary troops of the EFF will do (without any doubt) so much worse than the utter useless nature of the African National Congress. Just keep quiet.

VBS looter has a lot to say now? Floyd .just shut up ..Mr VBS Range Rover
