Kevin Mileham hit it on the head. Some will say he's politicising this, as an opposition member...but this can and SHOULD be put squarely at the ANC's feet.
I am happy this is happening for two reasons: 1) South Africans ( blacks in particular) will see that the ANC is not fit to be government and does not care about their well-being. 2) South africans would stop voting for ANC or any of its children (EFF OR MK) but instead would look at policies next time they vote because clearly voting for an organisation based on your skin color did not help😅. Effectively, you have no one but yourselves to blame for this chaos of children dying, a possibility of no electricity because you voted an uncaring bunch of nincompoops into power because they look like you. I made this error once in 1994 and ever since, i learned my lesson. The definition of insanity is to do the same thing over and over again and expect different results. If you want to continue suffering in the land of your birth, keep voting for the comrades, have at it...
Gotta say... you're absolutely right, take it from a black person. Till today I still fail to understand why people keep voting anc and the anc lite's of this world. What frustrates me the most is seeing people my age (lower twenties) support anc, eff and mk... This is because we're clearly still a long way from having a properly literate society. You find a Varsity student campaigning for eff or anc and you just ask yourself how come that person is in Varsity but they can't clearly decipher simple politics... you don't even need to be a genius to see that our country is in shambles... This is why I have concluded that University education alone is not enough....
2 million people around the country who will report to the municipality / eskom once their lights go off, they will only be without lights for 3 days. They wont die!
So here are the scenario's: If your meter is bypassed you will still have electricity through the bypassed line so this will not affect you. If you have been buying from these "ghost vendors" the codes that they are generating and selling wont work after 24 Nov. To fix this all you need to do is start buying from the city instead of these fake vendors. The first set of credits you buy from the city will have a 2nd set of codes that you need to enter to update it, thats it, nothing special you just insert the same set of numbers into the machine. The city can see these meters as registered on their systems but they have not bought electricity since the user started buying from ghost vendors. If you have been buying from the city chances are 99% your meter has already been reset, you most likely received the update code long ago with a previous purchase and you inserted it already.
ANC promised people free water and electricity, people voted on that notion. ANC must just refrain from interfering with eskom and cadre deployment. So much embezzment of funds by comrades.
Let them be on the dark. We've been fools for a long time paying the electricity. I once asked my relative in Joburg and ask her to buy electricity for me. He told me that they don't buy and don't know how to buy electricity
imagine over 2 million ppl havent registered when thier lights go off they cant go make plans to fix this as these centers will be closed for the holidays and thier time will be up and then there is where the problems begin imagine 2 million ppl in the streets protesting i fear the goverment are going to be in huge crises with ppl not having electricity for the holidays and going foward
ESKOM needs to have effective and efficient management of the running of the business. Cut down on paying their inefficient management rediculous wage increases and rather hold them accountable with their bonus on effective and efficient management.
The long queues are symptomatic of the poor communications from Eskom. As was explained in the video, it is a DIY issue for prepaid meter residents. You need to enter codes into your prepaid meter, and that will reset the meter. I had to call Tshwane municipality on three occasions in order to establish my status. The other issue is that some people are prepaid, while other households are not? Why? Owners of solar systems need "standard" meters, as a prepaid meter does not allow you to place power on the grid (reselling power to Eskom). I believe the Western Cape has this issue sorted.
Why is the gov notifying the citizens on last minutes? The Gov failed to properly communicate this to the citizens in time, and a lack of educating the citizens about this things.
I have not put my geyser on for 6 months due to the put of touch cost of electricity, thats the sacrifice we make as well as paying for pre paid power....why should those who sacrifice and pay do more for those who simply break the law and take and take and take. Id give elderly free power and places that help ppl.....not ppl who are simply saying no why must i pay, thoae neighbors MUST pay for us all....
We really facing the energy crisis. Also, no transparency into what are the csts that Eskom needs cover uregently to justify these high tariff increases that need kick in immediately. Sad nad pitiful....
Hi please let eskom give us who are illegal connected with electricity a chance to start paying because they want us to pay R6000 to R14000 in cash..Jordaan Sifunda
Thank u what do they do with Thier money we tax payers provide for Thier Housing Water and electricity Private schooling Security Car payments (BMW land cruiser and mercedes) Even fn bottle water we spend 200m a year on that
My "control meter" in the street across the road, is in a box that houses 3 meters. My meter is hanging on a thread, can be ripped off without a problem. The box housing the 3 meters is never locked.
My meter was blocked beginning of the yr i loaded units twice it never went through. Had to call to figure out rhe meter had to ve re registered which was difficult cause i rent my place. Took about 3 days to sort out and then load power.
After so many cadre employments luting, and people illegal and munisipalitys not paying eskom do people still want to keep the lights on with those small amount paying bills. And it comeing for months the new system. Jip this is what The goverment bread with Bee and incompeted cadre. Keep voting anc this is what the normal citizens have to deal daily ja ne.
Mokgopa is Chastizing the people, DA is speaking on behalf of the people. Serious Politics and the ANC does not seem to be doing well! Mokgopa is so over enthusiastic and losing sight of the politics of the day. Never thought i would think Good of DA but what do i know. Imagine the Gogo who said why didn't they hire small boys who come to our houses and register the meters, Wow! A job opportunity for youth and efficiency. An Again Kevin Mileham (DA) you know your politics. ANC Thinks they know the people, if you know your people you would know about them and how to work with them, politians (especially black politicians address their constituents with arrogance like they are not supposed to feel or see it)
Some of us just heard of this yesterday we don't Evan know where to buy the proper electricity we buy electricity from the sumarlians and there's no 40 digit numbers on the slip we don't Evan know where to buy the proper units these ppl are silly I had so much faith in Ramagopa.
I reported when my box did not take electricity in and they came tried to fix it but eventually brought a new one which they failed to connect it and they decided to bridge it and i personally didn't do it. It is ok if our boxes are fixed we will buy electricity
Why didnt you pay from the begging to avoid 6000 to 14 you think you were clever which means we have been paying for you wakeup and do the right thing and stop complaining
The deadline was build into it yha! hiring stupid people to talk about technology he could have said they need to be updated and they should send their work force to go to their house to up date the meters
The best thing is for everyone to go back to where we come from...we will survive by Cookin during the day do everything during the day when it's dark we go sleep We will go to the bush to release ourselves we will dig hole toilets in our yards we will dig water from the ground
We are paying for those refusing to pay and breaking the law, he didnt lie.

What is cost reflective. Based on the cost of Eskom?. They have no clue how to reduce cost.
there is no solution when our local brothers are doing it but let's blame the one from outside for the problem neh?
opening at 10am!! making old people stand for hours in a line ....... again these Eskom management and ANC are failing the country ...
Let them be on the dark. We've been fools for a long time paying the electricity. I once asked my relative in Joburg and ask her to buy electricity for me. He told me that they don't buy and don't know how to buy electricity

let everyone be indemnified and start afresh as long such people make total disclosure

Crazy ANC giving people deadlines but when people go there tbings are offline incompetence of this government
Most govt workers are ANC cadres...
@@AndrewMcFarlane_1all are ......they have to be to get their nice paid governmental jobs and pay checks at all our expense

What is going happened next,way forward after 24, they can't leave people in the dark.they should be alternative methods
There more people helping the illegal miners n less helping these people to register

The big question is, will people afford it.

There's no deadlines. You are all big mouths on small heads
I am not working my children finished their school are not working.....where will I get that lot of money?
