Fin24 Further allegations of corrupt incompetent actions from ANC appointee and still no action. No charges, no attempt to get back stolen money, created major problems for SA and the ANC is letting him get away with it so he can live in luxury on stolen money

Fin24 🤔🤔 so it’s true that someone had to accept this rubbish coal at the insistence of senior management.

Fin24 Always had a suspicion that EskomOfficials were behind load shedding !!!

Fin24 so much evidence of corruption by Koko when at Eskom yet still not arrested. able to spend the monies stolen. Send some overseas. Pay all his expenses. All the while you pay more taxes, electricity ect due to the govt looting & statecapture. Stealing from the poor

Fin24 As an engineer surely you would have understood that the plants require a certain specification for the coal? Obviously not. I think we should check how you obtained this claimed engineering qualification. Where did you study?

Fin24 Eish tweeting candidate engineer. It is all coming out. Net is closing. Are you finding friends have suddenly become scare? Now you are very quite. For your sake I hope you get a single cell in prison.
