Eskom is not privatised, says Ramaphosa

"For quite a while we have been saying that this entity of ours Eskom has to be restructured," he said.

"Now a lot of people misunderstand what we are seeking to do and they think that we are privatising Eskom. We are not privatising Eskom, we are restructuring it."
