JOHANNESBURG: South African President Cyril Ramaphosa on Monday rejected opposition allegations that a recent pause in the electricity cuts that have plagued the country for years was due to an election coming up on May 29.
President of South Africa Cyril Ramaphosa attends the opening of the 37th Ordinary Session of the Assembly of the African Union at the African Union Headquarters, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, on Feb 17, 2024.
The dramatic improvement in power supply has been a talking point in South African media and has led to opposition accusations that the timing was designed to improve voter satisfaction with the governing African National Congress. "Yet, against all the available evidence, some people have claimed that the reduced load-shedding is a political ploy ahead of the elections," he said."This is not borne out by the facts."
A particular point of dispute was whether Eskom was burning more diesel to increase supply, as alleged last week by the utility's former CEO, Andre de Ruyter, who is openly antagonistic towards the ANC.
