She said that the government created “the mess” that Eskom is in. In a statement, the ministry of public enterprises has called her comments “regrettable” and her conduct “unbecoming” as a board member of Eskom. Scopa visited various Eskom facilities over the past two days as part of its oversight duties. Scopa, led by chairperson Mkhuleko Hlengwa, met with de Ruyter, Eskom’s management and board members yesterday. During the meeting, Mavuso, who is also the CEO of Business Leadership SA, remarked that the ANC-led government created the mess at Eskom.
