Eskom board member Busisiwe Mavuso, at a meeting with Scopa, said the mess at the power utility was caused by the ANC-led government.The ministry of public enterprises called her comments"regrettable" and her conduct"unbecoming" as a board member of Eskom.
"It is unfortunate that Ms Mavuso brought party political issues in a process where SCOPA, as a Committee of Parliament, was exercising its oversight responsibilities."Scopa visited various Eskom facilities over the past two days as part of its oversight duties. Scopa, led by chairperson Mkhuleko Hlengwa, met with de Ruyter, Eskom's management and board members on Friday.
"... Because the reality of the matter is that this is not our mess. We have been brought in to clean it up. But we are not going to be the fall guy for the R300-and-whatever billion of Medupi and Kusile, that have still not being completed." Hlengwa then berated Mavuso for engaging in"theatrics" following"decent" interactions Scopa had with Eskom board chairperson Prof Malegapuru Makgoba over the past two days.

Fin24 She is 1000% correct
Fin24 The useless ANC government doesn't know what it's doing at the best of times. They can slam until they are blue, it doesn't change the fact that BusiMavuso2 was 100% correct and we all know it. We need more people like her 👏👏👏👏

Fin24 To Busi Mavuso a spade is a spade and not a tool of turning soil upside down in a place where fruits and vegetables are planted 🙊🙊🙊
Fin24 What a champion 👏 hit the nail on the head the anc have messed up everything from steeling funds lying messing up all our roads rail water nhi is going to fail not capable of governance and its taken a young lady to tell them exactly how incompetent they are ho Busi Muvuso

Fin24 My First Lady 🌹
Fin24 But i feel like a blame culture is a problem in SA. We understand why we are sinking but what are doing going forward instead of pointing the obvious. Lets show leadship and break boundaries to solve these problems.
Fin24 When i saw her talking oozing confidence, i was looking at the Ceo, he was probably like saying, go on gal so that they shift focus on me and be on yo case for a change lol
Fin24 If she were white the ANC would've playing victim, race ,wmc , Rupert , apartheid, bias ...the list is endless....but they will never ever say it's our fault cos they know they will be voted out
Fin24 The truth will create enemies and be offensive to the recipients MYANC for it's not palatable to the Mouth of the receiver. People are no longer your doormats.
Fin24 VoetsekANCgov!
Fin24 The MYANC don’t like it when they get TouchedOnTheirStudio shem - NOT - speak your truth Busi 👏👏

Fin24 We love u as a country Sesi keep up the good job
Fin24 Truth hurts
Fin24 She's a rock star
Fin24 ANC can never admit the truth. If they do then the whole criminal edifice starts to crumble. Deny, delay and undermine justice to stay out of jail for so many of them.
Fin24 Viva African National Corruption party Viva
Fin24 Please get rid of these crooks in 2024!
Fin24 She said something the Pravin could not say to the ANC GOVERNMENT about a failing SOE
Fin24 She was grandstanding
Fin24 Well done Busi!!!! The whole of the corrupt anc MUST step aside!
Fin24 Guess the truth stings.
Fin24 Dare not speak truth to corrupt MYANC power
Fin24 Honesty for a change..need more of it...
Fin24 I will blame ANC for my weak erection
Fin24 Government is a terrorist group called the ANC collective. Prosecute all cadres.
Fin24 You tell them madam
Fin24 She got balls
Fin24 The truth hurts!
Fin24 She is their member are they saying the AnC can't be criticized manje, ngaliphi.
Fin24 Government cannot handle the truth.
Fin24 Truth hurts!!
Fin24 She raised the issue which is a problem to us as citizens
Fin24 CR government and Eskom’s Execs are on the same page hired by them to push their mandate ..to destroy Eskom in order for IPP (mostly run by whites and few white puppets) to prevail.. and benefit from Eskom.. failure …that’s CRs mandate
Fin24 ANC just doesn’t want to acknowledge the truth! It’s shameful & embarrassing for them! Thankfully someone had the guts to tell them the truth! Useless Scopa also needs to take responsibility for their lack of action when the ANC was robbing Eskom!
Fin24 Well done to her
Fin24 Mavuso was right but i wonder who is hlengwa representing and he doesnt respect women
Fin24 Oh and all ANC members should recluse themselves first - so the rest of those in Government can make a statement without your interference..!
Fin24 Lmao she had to take the Fall but Not Andre 😭😂🤣🤣🤣 🤧🤦♀️ There’s always one willing to take the Fall
Fin24 And the rest of the country LOVE her for it VoetsekANC
Fin24 Straite talk doesn't brake any friendship, she is correct, the current Board never steal money.
Fin24 Slamming her for telling the truth🤷🏽♂️
Fin24 But when will the ANC self correct if it cannot even stomach criticism? The whole talk of renewal becomes hollow and just hogwash!
Fin24 Our Govt is allergic to the truth.
Fin24 VoetsekANC
Fin24 The truth hurts
Fin24 Give this lady a bells!
Fin24 She must be removed from that position
Fin24 She should be praised for telling it like it is. The whole country can vouch for her on that.
Fin24 I have so much respect for Busisiwe- not backing down and not afraid to tell the truth - while the chairperson was attempting to bully her
Fin24 Anc screwed the country... Truth hurts. She said what needed to be said.
Fin24 Truth hurts, doesn't it?
Fin24
Fin24 She spoke the only truth no one was brave enough to tell . So now the government is embarrassed n wanna label her
Fin24 Political interference is a problem. That's why we have this issue
Fin24 People are here defending the ANC, when from the days of Zuma, Gigaba started the rot in Eskom, and brought the thieves from Transnet to wreck havoc on Eskom's vulnerability to tenders for the Guptas, this is known info, the commission exposed it all. Well done to BusiMavuso2
Fin24 This government is shameless 😳
Fin24 Sis Busi yooooooh 😳😳😳😳 didn't add mince to those words 😮💨😮💨😮💨 Pheloka74425215 PearlLudidi ZBidliza
Fin24 Should we kept quite when ANC is failing us no this matter of loadshedding is longer overdue, during Mandela it was there but not like this, Mbeki ignore it JZ was busy looting 💸 and Cyril is incompetent no nothing I will always criticize ANC no matter what
Fin24 Soo yo'l shifting focus from the mess gvt left at Eskom to Busi walking out n refusing to be the escape goat?🤣😂😂🤣
Fin24 👉👉👉Marching orders otherwise load-shedding won't stop There many capable leaders who are ready to face the pressures of this job, clearly she can't handle pressure.
Fin24 What Gordhan could say mara
Fin24 Well, I believe she should kept that obvious view in herself. We all know that we are all in ANC mess, whether you talk crime, water, immigration,trains, education. Just imagine if every state entity board appearing in front of SCOPA points ANC,we won't know current challenges
Fin24 MYANC hates to be called out. They never take responsibility or account for any wrong doing, hence everything is falling apart. There's no leadership nje..SUCKS!
Fin24 Every criticism of the ANC will be “slammed”. There were millions of non-ANC people who fought in the struggle for freedom. How is it that we gave the baton only to the ANC? It’s time to pass on…
Fin24 She deserves our unqualified support
Fin24 She has been defending ANC government for years what led her to defend white puppet at the expense of ANC today
Fin24 Saying it like it is to the responsible and honourable is considered wrong ? Really
Fin24 😏
Fin24 She should've just say one thing. VoetsekANCFriday
Fin24 She must be the one who predicted massive loadshedding for 18months or more on the same committee in 2019, she was again lambasted by MPs but it's now official policy. Loadshedding is going to be the norm for a long time &ANC mismanagement to be the official reason for long time
Fin24 Not surprised by this comment, they are the ones that messed up after all.
Fin24 Chancellor House an ANC company benefited at the expense of taxpayers created a huge debt in the inefficient building of power stations. That extra money could have been used to repair or replace old power stations. She is right
Fin24 To the government what happened to freedom of speech ?
Fin24 Chancellor House an ANC company benefited at the expense of taxpayers created a huge debt in the inefficient building of power stations. That extra money could have been used to repair or replace old power stations. She is right
Fin24 Slam it all you like, she was telling the truth right in your faces.
Fin24 You Go Girl !
Fin24 Govt? Who is Govt? Why not say it as it is, the ANC run Govt?
Fin24 We need to keep her at all costs!!! 100% behind you!!!!
Fin24 Misconduct or no, were there any inaccuracies in her comments? Especially with headlines saying MYANC demands better from Eskom
Fin24 Well done lady Busi...you have ordinary SA citizens support. Slam the anc. They have banana peels on their eye, ears, hands, feet and has no hearts.
Fin24 Ja neh Mzansi. Nobody wants to account in this land. Blame, blame. It's a mess and I doubt it will ever be corrected.
Fin24 Busi Mavuso was telling the truth, all SOE's including Eskom_SA are in this mess because of corrupt and incompetent MYANC leaders
Fin24 ANC people are in govt because ANC chose them, therefore they represent ANC within the govt and so ANC is to blame for stupid and greedy people they deploy either to govt or SOE’s. Viva Busi Mavuso and I the stupid Scopa chairperson should be impartial
Fin24 At some point we need people to start telling the truth..... If we in this mess cause of ANC gorv let her say that.... Anc is the party in power they need to start to take responsibility for their failures
Fin24 She’s my fighter this one,thank u for positive representation cc
Fin24 It is because they cannot handle the truth.
Fin24 She was on point and very patriotic of her. I support her.
Fin24 This government is a failure can’t hold the ruling party to account, shameless
Fin24 Well done Busi the truth must be spoken for our nation to grow
Fin24 She touched GovernmentZA MYANC MkhulekoHlengwa ParliamentofRSA PresidencyZA CyrilRamaphosa on their studio🤣🤣. She's a PATRIOT🇿🇦
Fin24 Let's refer to the Zondo Commission's report on Eskom. The ANC stinks.
Fin24 The sooner the ANC becomes a spectator in our politics, the better the chance of SA's recovery. This political party is a curse to this country and they want to destroy everything before they relinquish power.
Fin24 She was 100% right
Fin24 They will slam it, speaking the truth or doing the right thing in that party. You a gonner
Fin24 Truth always will hurt the corrupt anc dic
Fin24 Truth will always hurt the anc corrupt dictators
Fin24 She didn’t lie ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Fin24 Of course they're mad, and she was probably expecting it. Kanti who is government in this country?
Fin24 The truth doesn't sit well with the ANC.... CyrilRamaphosa 2024 is looming and will be a big crash VoetsekANC
Fin24 The criminals slam someone who’s calling them out should be your title.
Fin24 Busi is not a politician, she is a professional who got gatvol of current government incompetence and can’t take fall for that… m super proud of her.
Fin24 Yes they will slam her for doing her job properly.
Fin24 Well GovernmentZA , she BusiMavuso2 is 100% correct. VoetsekANC is the reason for Eskom's failure
Fin24 Do you see the problem with the political class The dishonourable members of parliament 🚮 They love engaging in double speak! You must not say this but do this and say it that way.... No interests in the truth
Fin24 Irrefutable evidence that even our supposedly 'learned and advanced' natives are not immune to the ravages of black inferiority complex At its simplest - she excused an incompetent white man and blamed blacks. Coonism 101.
Fin24 Wow government will amaze you, she's tired of corruption that the lead government is doing.We need such strong leaders or board
Fin24 Like always.. they shoot the messenger
Fin24 Telling it how it is. StandUpForBusi
Fin24 Hands off Busisiwe Mavuso. We all know she's correct. Nnete ya baba
Fin24 They must fix the Eskom problems instead of slamming people! This arrogance of the ANC administration is annoying!
Fin24 I'm Shocked
Fin24 Because govie hates the truth! Go Busi! Never fold!
Fin24 She was unprofessional that’s it. Yes her statement was correct but not for such meeting. Disappointed at her
Fin24 Give that lady a BELLS 👏👏👏
Fin24 So now we're not allowed to point out the consequences of corruption if politicians do it because it amounts to politicking 😂 VOETSTEK wannabe CCP scum!!
Fin24 Obviously
Fin24 Yet it’s true…
Fin24 Who must we criticise
Fin24 Slamming someone who has just stated the obvious. The truth hurts. They were warned in 1998 about the problem, 24 years later we still sitting with the same issue and it’s getting worse every year. Who has been in power during this entire period? ANC. Don’t shoot the messenger.
Fin24 Useless ANC are going to face mounting criticism as they are pretty much useless at everything.
Fin24 Thats what they always do. Cover their wickets because in this political game their is no LBW. The umpire itself is the corrupt ANC. Eskom itself was the ANC and guptas. Those stations were never properly serviced with original parts and repaired
Fin24 Truth hurts….
Fin24 Well said BusiMavuso2
Fin24 We stand with you BusiMavuso2. Everything gone wrong in our country is at the alter of MYANC. They stole food parcels meant for the poor, stole PPE funds... Imagine....
Fin24 If the shoe fits neh.! 🤷🏻♂️
Fin24 BusiMavuso2 well done. You have our support!
Fin24 Can't handle the truth
Fin24 They don’t like hearing the truth
Fin24 THERE WAS ONLY 1 LOSER IN THIS BATTLE - THE ANC!
Fin24 SCOPA DID NOTHING EVER SINCE INCEPTION ,WHAT MIRACLE WILL THEY BRING !!
Fin24 You can't solve a problem without addressing its Root causes. Some might say it's grandstanding, I think it was necessary.
Fin24 Did she tell the truth about the incompetent MYANC ?is that why they angry. They get more arrogant and dumb.
Fin24 Who is government
Fin24 She has represented me very well
Fin24 The ANC is the government. You can't do anything about it.
Fin24 At least someone has the balls to say it out loud. Well done!
Fin24 Dont like hearing the truth. It hurts even more coming from an educated black woman because they cannot play the race card.
Fin24 😂😂😂 eya obviously they do mara Ms. Busi got 📠 No 🖨
Fin24 She needs to be removed from that board ASAP, this one likes grandstanding...🙄
Fin24 Well done to her!
Fin24 Finally someone with Integrity.
Fin24 Lol if the same thing was said by Pravin the reaction would have been different. In fact, Pravin said the same thing many times!
Fin24 Awu siyabonga waze washaya khona sis'Busi.
Fin24 She’s going to be made a scapegoat for the failure of the very same ministry of public enterprises. I don’t find any wrong in her statement
Fin24 Directors are legally and ethically bound by law and a code of conduct such as The_IoDSA . Politicians are bound by much lesser codes, if any. A director must be free to give an opinion however distasteful it is to a politician. BusiMavuso2
Fin24 Iqiniso liyababa. Damn MYANC sisebumnyameni why? Niyazi so asiyeke kushona le nale sikhathele thina loadshedding seriously now. Iyacika. I salute what she did.
Fin24 I believe that she is correct. However the platform was for accounting purppises ad per the mandate of SCOPA. She needs to address her concerns directly with Pravin Gordhan as the Minister responsible. If that fails, then go to the President. But where is Pravin is all this?
Fin24 LOADSHEDDING Huge Demand v Low Supply Major Power Stations Medupi and Kusile was Built to increase Supply Massive Corruption eroded the Supply till today Many Executives and Boards have come and gone but same Problem exist Current Board Exposing the Root Corruption=LOADSHEDDING
Fin24 Nnete ya baba ' The truth is bitter'
Fin24 Nazoke. Someone tells it like is it then boom your life ends. Career ends. Just cos you told the truth. She'll be out of a job now JUST for telling the truth

Fin24 The board is incapable of resolving Eskom problems that's why she was deviating from her role. The board must push Eskom's mission statement but alas let's play the blame game. Everyone knows the problem she's getting paid to be the solution. Jamnandas will see her out.
Fin24 Hell no. She raised valid points. They can go jump in a pothole.
Fin24 AND she knows the ANC was / is not involved in any mess, except individuals who are associated or members of the ANC. ANC decisions are taken in the NEC, NWC or Top Six, with her Evidence she must share Evidence by the ANC national structures to mess.
Fin24 I love u Busi. Everything is collapsing under the ANC government and all of us are witness to that. End of story 🙋🏾♂️
Fin24 Thank you Busi Mavuso for speaking the truth to power. We need more people like you.
Fin24 Busi isn’t anyones puppet. RESPECT
Fin24 We are here because of them vele mus
Fin24 Shame MYANC did that hit a nerve?
Fin24 She is talking about Jamnandas 😂😂
Fin24 Boards are appointed, paid ti solve problems not to grand stand.
Fin24 They better get used to it. People have had it with the wrecking and corruptions of the anc.
Fin24 The truth hurts!!!
Fin24 She is correct!!!
Fin24 She’s my hero
Fin24 Government must voetsek. They a bunch of thieves that got us here. She told them the truth.
Fin24 Well done Busi! 👏 everyone blaming the board and Andre but you are fighting to save Eskom despite lack of support from ANC, lack of funds from non paying government institutions, non payment from public, lack of skilled workers, BEE hindering employing the right skills, ...
Fin24 Truth hurts lol. It is all ANC's fault
Fin24 While Busi is 💯% correct in her assessment of why we are where we are with Eskom, but how is discussing the ANC in an oversight committee going to change anything because that committee has no authority to sanction a political party? I think she just got emotional and lost it
Fin24 Bayamnyela!
Fin24 Telling the truth! Why should she excuse herself when all she did was state the facts? The ANC is the cause of all the looting and lack of maintenance from the whole nation and individual municipalities. Facts are facts
Fin24 ANC can't handle the truth
Fin24 All the problems that the country faces today are a result of the ANC failures. The lady appeared to account on ESKOM matter. Apart from what we all know, what operational or technical challenges are they facing n how they been dealing with.
Fin24 Oversight? Comedy! What about last 28 years then? Did any of them support No.1 in a no confidence vote? Vote for current public protector? Any family doing business with state?
Fin24 We are not surprised...
Fin24 When is the board going to account? The ANC is useless and everyone knows that but the question by SCOPA was about the board’s accountability. What are you doing there in the board if you going to complain just like us ordinary people?
Fin24 Solve issues on the table do not blame others
Fin24 Why can't she criticize ANC, if they are wrong they must criticized... Go girl
Fin24 She is like people blaming apartheid
Fin24 Typical of the PresidencyZA regime. Silence the truth. ramapoephol strikes again!
Fin24 She is like people who are blaming past government when they have to solve the problems of today
Fin24 She is right, why must they be fallboys for other people's mismanagement and incompetency? 🤷♀️
Fin24 But she told the real truth,, big up Sis Mavuso
Fin24 The truth hurts the ANC
Fin24 Criticism towards the ANC coming from a black woman is a hard pill to swallow for the ANC, their arrogance is clearly shown! Well done Busi Mavuso, we need more people like her to speak up!
Fin24 Truth and nothing but the truth.
Fin24 Mavuso was right, the anc collapsed eskom , hlengwa is tweking for supper. He must just join the anc so that he can defend it not at the expense of the opposition parties.
Fin24 She is so unprofessional to hantle issues
Fin24 It was NEVER about your health. It was ALWAYS about total control and depopulation. I have been informing about this for a long time. Those doctors, lawyers, scientists, journalists, politicians, religious leaders and others who propagated and continue to propagate the false
Fin24 No shit. She blamed them
Fin24 Who is this govt?
