JOHANNESBURG - The Minister of Mineral Resources Gwede Mantashe has appealed to reinstate Shell's exploration for fossil fuels along the Wild Coast just after signing in three renewable power producers to aid Eskom's supply of electricity in the country.
Residents of the areas say that the seismic survey bore no advantages for them except destroying their sacred land, with Greenpeace saying that Mantashe was on the side of profit, not the people. However, the coastal communities and NGOs must return to court again to oppose Impact Africa and Mantashe lodging against the judgment.
Environmentalists have urged that more investment into stranded fossil fuel infrastructure was costly and would not provide the grid with the necessary energy it needs to alleviate power cuts.

Mantash, if you are so passionate, pay the legal costs yourself.
Hydrocarbon can boost our energy needs for future generations, this is not a bad thing, even if he has been paid, who cares?
So, how muh of our tax money has he spent up to now fighting his case? This shit must stop!
Once upon a time the ANC had the best interests of the country at heart and would fight any capitalist driven damage to the land. These days it's about stomach politics and how much money they stand to benefit from. Changes so quickly.
More more money wasted on court cases?
The sooner this country gets rid of twiggy, the better.
Fight it Gwede. These white people are only concerned about their holidays. How many people are employed in these hotels in the wild coast n how much do they earn. On whose benefit are these so-called environmentalist are acting.They are busy building settlements on the KZN coast
Waste of taxpayers monies, why is he allowed to appeal? Cabinet seriously lacks morals
Evil ...truly
Another waste of tax payers money
Got to deliver on those ol bribes, Dude..
Shell must have paid him upfront ?
Corruption written all over yet again VoetsekANC
The way he won't let this go raises questions. Actually perhaps not. We know why.
Gwede Mantashe is such a bully, he thinks Mzansi owns him something, his so arrogant.
who is the worst DMRE minister we've ever had and why is it GwedeMantashe1 ?
This guy needs to go!!! He is doing his utmost to push his own agenda. He is pushing for this and nuclear. He wants to secure his own kickback cut before he retires!
Obviously been paid to push to destroy the Wild Coast!
Kaders staan seker klaar bakhand.
He just failed the impartiality test as an arbiter . Courts cannot entertain an appeal. SCOPA and Parliament Must haul him in to explain a patent bias .
Please fight all these negative letigations against the government agenda for growth and development. These tree-huggers are costing our economy of necessary employment opportunities for our people. Then turn around and accuse ANC of failing the people.
Can we just arrest this criminal already.
He took something in advance, he does not have a choice..
