Johannesburg - Embattled South African power
utility Eskom has again let the public down by opting not to release a
statement providing clarification on CEO Jacob Maroga's future at the
utility.
Eskom promised to release a statement on Wednesday, possibly relating to
reports that Maroga was denied access to Megawatt Park on Tuesday.
The utility, which cancelled a press conference at the last minute late
last week, has promised almost on a daily basis that it would be providing
an update on the situation at Eskom.
It also suggested it would be calling a press conference before the week
is over but this seems increasingly unlikely.
The only available spokesperson at Eskom, Eskom general manager of
business strategy and integration Andrew Etzinger told I-Net Bridge that a
media statement would not be issued today after all.
He said all he could say was what was already in the public domain for
almost two weeks now. "In the board's view Jacob Maroga is no longer chief
executive."
