SA’s electricity crisis | BBC says De Ruyter is an attention seeker

JOHANNESBURG - Black Business Council CEO Kganki  Matabane has labelled former Eskom CEO Andre de Ruyter as an attention seeker.

He says instead of doing a tell-all interview on alleged shenanigans at the ailing power utility, De Ruyter should have approached law enforcement authorities.

"He must report those allegations to law enforcement agencies. But our appeal as the BBC is that we should not be giving him the attention he is seeking because we are wasting our time focusing on someone who is the past," Matabane said.

Matabane also has doubts about Calib Cassim's appointment as interim Eskom CEO.

"We don't think he's the right person to be the CEO," Matabane said.

"He failed to submit financial statements for some times at Eskom so we'll wait for the real announcement of a CEO."
