Who Captured Who? Ramaphosa Complements his Hijacked “Pick ‘n Mix” Zondo Commission on State Capture, which he Hijacked from Zuma!

Posted on Leave a comment

Although the corruption of the Commission on State Corruption is quite visible to those who pay attention, it seems that Ramaphosa fooled half of the people and turned the Zondo Commission into a self-promotion platform, just as he did with the ANC Zuma Violence, which he used to strengthen his power in the ANC and in government. An opinion poll has shown mixed reactions to the work done by the State Commission of Inquiry, since it was set up three years ago.

The commission officially concluded oral testimony last week with the controversial testimony of Cyril Ramaphosa, but deputy chief justice of the Commission, Raymond Zondo, said they could call a few more people if absolutely necessary. He was joking.

Wie Kaap Wie? Ramaphosa Komplementeer sy Gekaapte “Pick ‘n Mix” Zondo Kommissie oor Staatskaping, wat hy van Zuma Gekaap het!

Posted on Leave a comment

Al is die korrupsie van die kommissie na staatskorrupsie heelwat sigbaar vir diê wat aandag skenk, blyk dit dat Ramaphosa helfte van die mense gefop het, en die Zondo Kommissie omgekeer het na ‘n self promoverings platform, net soos hy gedoen het met die ANC Zuma geweld, wat hy gebruik het om sy mag in die ANC en in die regering  te versterk. ‘n Meningspeiling het gemengde reaksies getoon op die werk wat die staatskommissie van ondersoek verrig het, sedert dit drie jaar gelede gestig is.

Die kommissie het verlede week amptelik mondelinge getuienis afgehandel met die omstrede getuienis van Cyril Ramaphosa, maar adjunkhoofregter van die ondersoek, Raymond Zondo, het gesê dat hulle nog ‘n paar mense kan bel indien dit absoluut nodig is. Hy het gespot.

Medupi Power Station Rocked by Explosive Failure Again! Impact on National Grid Unknown as Deployed Cadres Scratch Their Heads…

Posted on Leave a comment

It seems that the implementation of cadre deployment and BBBEE practices are still taking their toll on the embattled national power provider. Eskom confirmed on Monday that the Medupi power station had an explosion on the number 4 unit’s generator, at around 22:50 on Sunday night, and that unit 5 also tripped as a result.

No injuries were reported at the plant and all employees and contractors were accounted for, but emergency services did assist seven workers with the necessary treatment for shock.

Ontploffing Skud Alweer vir Medupi! Impak op Nasionale Netwerk Onbekend, Wyl Ontplooide Kaders Kopkrap…

Posted on Leave a comment

Dit blyk asof die implementering van kaderontplooing en BSEB -praktyke steeds hul tol eis by die berugte nasionale kragvoorsiener. Eskom het Maandag bevestig dat die Medupi -kragstasie Sondagaand omstreeks 22:50, ‘n ontploffing op die nommer 4 eenheid se kragopwekker beleef het, en dat eenheid 5 ook vermoedelik as gevolg hiervan gestruikel het.

Geen beserings is op die aanleg aangemeld nie en alle werknemers en kontrakteurs het gerapporteer, maar nooddienste het wel sewe werkers gehelp met die nodige behandeling vir skok.

ANC Using #Covid19SA to Justify Plans to “Discipline Private Sector”, Nationalise Pensions & Plunder Central Bank Reserves in “Radical Transformation”!

Posted on Leave a comment

THE STATE CAPTURE TO END ALL CAPTURES: True to their word, the ANC’s Ramaphosa and Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma (NDZ) are using the extended CCP-virus lockdown, as a cover to propose changes to the Pension law in order to grab pensions for massive redistribution of wealth, and tender fraud on a scale never seen before! Né Cyril? We should have known. The ANC is coming for your pensions with it’s promised radical transformation, turning the country into a fully communist, totalitarian and fascist black supremacist hellhole. In short they are throwing more wood under the pot in which they are slowly boiling the white minority frogs. Lots and lots of wood. 

A new concept document by the ANC’s head of economic transformation, Enoch Godongwana, states that the ANC wants to use pension money and the reserves of the Reserve Bank, to build a so called “open economy” post CCP-virus pandemic. Open for looting yes! The concept document was submitted to the ANC’s national executive

Greedy Ramaphosa Wants More From His & ANC’s Personal BEE Cash Cow, Eskom – He Finally Admits Medupi & Kusile Are Unreliable (Have Been Bled Dry) Even As The Blame Game Rages On…

Posted on Leave a comment

Planning to fail: Having pocketed millions, if not billions, by plundering Eskom in all sorts of ways through a variety of tender companies and who knows what else, it seems Cyril and The ANC have finally realised the Medupi & Kusile projects have bled dry, and are now looking for new ways to employ (steal) taxpayers money, to continue bleeding them dry… yet another new huge expensive project with new tenders, contracts, bribes & kickbacks. It is the same all over South Africa, build a new school, extort tenders, contracts, bribes & kickbacks. Then burn it down and steal more from the taxpayer by building another school with more tenders, contracts, bribes and kickbacks. The African Way.

It is incredible that Ramaphosa now says that the much vaunted Medupi and Kusile Power Stations, with an ultimate costs as high as R451 BILLION are unreliable! This after the ANC’s investment arm, Chancellor House, made up to R150 Million profit from the proje

#Rollingblackouts in SA mos definitely caused by BEE, racial quotas, cadre deployment and outright looting!

Posted on Leave a comment

Yes, without a doubt the c-ANC-er broke Eskom, like they broke everything else. And they are making money from it too.

It is known that the ANC’s investment arm called Chancellor House made a 5000 % profit on its investment in Hitachi South Africa which had the tender for the boilers of Medupi and Kusile power stations. It was also reported in the media that Hitachi did a shoddy job with the welding of the boilers, which will shorten the life expectancy of the entire Medupi and Kusile. Chancellor House is also a shareholder of Pfisterer, a Pietermaritzburg based company supplying equipment to Eskom.

Today Eskom is producing less electricity than in 2007, costing more per unit price and using a bigger workforce than ever before, earning bigger salaries and bonuses.

Medupi and Kusile power stations are still “off the grid” due to poor construction work, corruption and cost overruns

Posted on Leave a comment

More than 600 senior officials from Eskom and some executives were informed of the entity’s “turnaround” plan. According to documentation, Eskom is sitting without cash and has almost completely collapsed on several occasions.

R130bn has been loaned to the power provider and the state is expected to help as government announces increased tariffs. Eskom unbundling continues but will take four years to finalize. So the future is still bleak around the entity with its overloaded workforce and top structure officials.

In the last two years, Eskom reported a loss of R2.3 billion while R19.6 billion was wasted on unauthorized expenses.

In the meantime, Medupi and Kusile power stations are still “off the grid” due to poor construction work, corruption and cost overruns.

During the ANC regime, roughly R500 billion has been looted by Eskom contractors, which partly explains why South Africa is in such a big financial mess – it is unsure if the culprits will be brought to justice

Posted on Leave a comment

A Special Investigation Unit is currently investigation more than eleven contractors whom are suspected of robbing the power utility of billions of rand.

The contractors looted R130 billion from Eskom during the construction of the two new power stations, Medupi and Kusile as well as the Ingula power station.

From the so-called “inner circles” it is claimed that plundering at Eskom has been taken place since 2005, which partly explains why South Africa has ended up in a financial mess.

A spokesman said Eskom had been robbed of R170bn, of which R130bn was directly related to so-called contractors working at the different power plants.

Investigation is now being done to determine who has committed theft, and who worked within Eskom to benefit the thieves.
