OPINIONISTA: The DA is the only party that can fix the Eskom mess By Natasha Mazzone Natasha9Mazzone

South Africa has been on a downward spiral for more than 10 years. This is demonstrated by the country’s dismal economic growth rate, rising unemployment, increasing inequality, constant downgrades of the country’s credit rating and now again, the risk of the national power grid collapsing. What is becoming clearer by the day is that the African National Congress and President Cyril Ramaphosa have put us in this situation.

At the most recent update on Eskom and the rolling blackouts, the Minister of Public Enterprises Pravin Gordhan basically told South Africans to prepare for worst and that they did not have a plan to resolve a crisis of their own making. When Gordhan was appointed, some had hope that he would bring drastic changes to state-owned enterprises. However, what we have seen is his old and overplayed “new boards and bailouts” strategy, which is no more than a façade of action being taken.

Put differently, would you invest your pension in VBS? It is estimated that about R100-billion in investment would flow out of South Africa in the case of a Moody’s downgrade. This will weaken the economy further and unemployment will inevitably increase as well.

Natasha9Mazzone We are tired to hear how best the DA can do everything, what about the water crisis in WC?

Natasha9Mazzone I'm a DA supporter, and not even I believe that. They are so busy fighting with each other, I'm not even sure they realise we have load-shedding.

Natasha9Mazzone If only Indians, Coloured and Whites could band together we will unseat the EFF from 3rd position and THAT has all sorts of wonderful ramifications. How the hell do we get even whites to stand together? The DA's BBBEE policies effectively alienate whites to a tag-on position.

Natasha9Mazzone Rubbish

Natasha9Mazzone She is dreaming Natasha

Natasha9Mazzone 😂😂😂😂👊🏿

Natasha9Mazzone Lol other parties can’t? Where have u fixed the electricity problem? Lies

Natasha9Mazzone Racism?

Natasha9Mazzone Really? First fix TSHWANE by introducing MERITOCRACY Instead of appointment of unqualified DA Cadres.

Natasha9Mazzone Ohh please give us a break 😏😏😏

Natasha9Mazzone The Eskom mess cannot be fixed. The SEO mess cannot be fixed, the government cannot be fixed without fixing the root cause - Ignorance, Arrogance, Selfishness... And this will take many years.

Natasha9Mazzone Huh, the pizza lady. 🙄 DA needs to sort out its race relations policies before trying to fix national assets.

Natasha9Mazzone DA must first fix itself ohoo

Natasha9Mazzone Can DA the 'Only Party' first fix' the Bosasa WMC mess first, then we will consider the rest after please.

Natasha9Mazzone But it will be the new ANC government that will turn the 'can' to 'will'. This week we have heard the Western Cape nominee state the province will come off the national grid and the DA plans a march to disrupt the economy.

jsteenhuisen Natasha9Mazzone Any recruitment agency can fix the mess. All you need is 12 skilled people in top management to sit and do basic mathematics

Natasha9Mazzone 😂🤣🤣🤣

Natasha9Mazzone But absolutely nothing u say will keep the lights on in the short term. Until the private sector develops its own generation what will u do 2 fix the boilers, & what abt the distribution that is so poorly maintained?! This says nothing & offers 0 for the next 2 years.

Natasha9Mazzone 😂😂😂😂😂

Natasha9Mazzone Let them fix their own mess first

Natasha9Mazzone With all the hot air the Our_DA has been spewing lately, it is entirely possibly that they can sort out the energy poblems in SA.

Natasha9Mazzone They must fix Bosasa mess first!

Natasha9Mazzone Yes I agree by privation and take responsibility off the state.

Natasha9Mazzone You can't even fix Helen zile 😱

Natasha9Mazzone 😂😂😂😂😂
