On Eskom's rolliing power blackouts

A report from Archbishop Thabo Makgoba, who interrupted his leave to join a virtual meeting including President Ramaphosa, interfaith leaders, MPs and the Eskom board and CEO to highlight South Africa's crisis:

In the light of my Christmas message, faith leaders did not mince their words but attempted to spell out the desperate situations our people face  because of the rolling blackouts. We pressed upon the government the urgency for load shedding to end, albeit recognising the reality of corruption, criminality and technical issues. We listened and felt heard. The president understood the need for action and also committed to coming back to us.
