Ailing power utility Eskom has also joined in on the Black Friday frenzy offering some “luminous” load shedding specials, albeit with no certainty that the relaxation of the deliberate power cuts would last until Cyber Monday. 💡

The diesel supply comes after Eskom on Sunday said that it had run out of cash to buy diesel and does not plan to order any more until 1 April 2023.

Following that news, Pravin Gordhan said government was looking at solutions to Eskom’s diesel challenges following discussions with Minister of Finance Enoch Godongwana and National Treasury. “We have taken steps to find funding. Firstly, as a matter of urgency, the Minister of Finance and myself talked on Sunday evening about where money could be found. Secondly, there was a meeting between my delegation and the Minister of Finance’s delegation [where we talked] about the challenges Eskom faced.
