Hon Chair, hon members, those who believe that the ANC can save Eskom, they suffer from self-hate. Eskom is like a bribery machine run by the ANC deployees. Eskom crisis is an ANC-made disaster. The
morally bankrupt ANC is clueless on how to solve Eskom's crisis.
Hon members, hon Rantho came here and said Matsela Koko is a criminal and that he was working for the Guptas. She forgot to say to the Guptas were also working for Mr President Zuma. [Applause.]
Hon members, the question we need to ask ourselves is: Why Brian Molefe is not in jail? Why Matsela Koko is still a free man? The answer is very simple; these people were stealing money on behalf of some ANC leaders or channelling it to the Guptas. Therefore, bailing out Eskom under these circumstances - under the leadership of the ANC is like rewarding criminals for a job well done.
Hon members, what's happening at Eskom is lack of governance and we must take away Eskom from the hands of the ANC. Failure to do so, load shedding will be the new normal. Therefore I want to say to all South Africans that 8th May is our salvation. We must vote out the ANC. We must defeat the enemy of the poor, which is the ANC.
Hon members, even if you unbundle Eskom, the corrupt ANC will still deploy incapable people, who have no interest of our people at heart.
South Africa is fast becoming a failed state; thank you ANC. Unemployment will continue to rise due to economic stagnation; thank you to ANC. Our young people do not have opportunities; thank you to ANC.
I wish I was able to pray that load shedding can only go to Mr Zuma's house and those people of the ANC, who were part of the looting of Eskom.
Hon members, the ANC is busy writing the obituary of our country. We must stop them before we don't have a country. There is nothing that will get out of the ANC. It is a criminal replacing another. The opposition must prepare to take over after 8th May. [Applause.]
