The Eskom Board and Management have taken a decision to suspend the managers of the Tutuka and Kendal power stations, in the aftermath of stage 4 loadshedding.

The Eskom board has come out strongly against the implementation of Stage 4, saying the level of failures at power stations are unexpectedly high.

Apathetic management has been cited.
