Johannesburg - Hundreds of people gathered in Johannesburg on Wednesday to protest against the proposed 53% Eskom electricity tariff increase.
The Anti-Privatisation Forum, which has organised the protest, is calling for the immediate resignation of Eskom managers and demands that no bonuses be paid to management.
