Brian Molefe guns for Cyril Ramaphosa, alleging that the president’s relationship with Glencore was only a ploy to siphon money out of Eskom.

and thereby tied itself into a disadvantageous coal supply contract without due diligence, because its real risk calculation was on the political influence of Ramaphosa.

Molefe said Glencore knew that the company could prove profitable only if there were successful renegotiation of the coal price in the contract with Eskom, and if the utility waived penalties that were approaching R2-billion. “They had made their bed and needed to lie on it. It was unfair and arrogant of them to demand that Eskom should effectively pay for the manner in which they had tied themselves into the proverbial knot.”

The war room had become a de facto alternative Eskom board and Ramaphosa, the de facto chairman, he charged. “I could not face Eskom employees and the unions and tell them that their bonuses would not be paid or that their salary increases would be zero …. and that we have no funds to fix the apartheid wage gap that still exists between black and white employees of Eskom while rich international corporations were unduly exploiting Eskom,” he added.

Glencore is not the only reason for ESKOM failing.

This guy is a corrupt Gupta stooge trying deflection tactics. They wont work, Brian. You're busted. Prison awaits.

Let's see how this pans out. I don't for a second think that Ramapoeshaars hands are clean. ALL these MYANC politicians are crooks.

Shots fired, now waiting 🤔👀

IGNATIU39131458 Molefe 's allegation against Ramaphosa is more tangible than connecting the dots hallucination from Gordhan and jonas.

As the song goes 'Oh, it's cryin' time again, you're gonna leave me I can see that far away look in your eyes I can tell by the way you hold me darlin', ooh That it won't be long before it's cryin' time.'

Quality journslism.

But His Excellency, Honourable President Cyril Ramaphosa was not the President then....Molefe must first refund R30 million and explain his saxonworld visits

“Zondo called for a tea break and when the sitting resumed made a ruling that in future witnesses who wished to make statements from the stand implicating others should give a warning of seven days that they planned to do so.” ZondoCommission you are a joke. Just waste of time.

That's basically implicating the President of State Capture..
