Eskom CEO Phakamani Hadebe has resigned from his position.

A statement issued by the power utility on Friday said that Hadebe would serve notice until the end of July."It is no secret that this role comes with unimaginable demands which have unfortunately had a negative impact on my health. In the best interests of Eskom and my family, I have therefore decided to step down, “ Hadebe was quoted as saying.

"It has been a privilege to serve South Africans as the Group Chief Executive of Eskom. I am humbled and grateful to have contributed towards the stability for an organisation that is critical for our economy. I am particularly grateful to the board, the EXCO, and all our employees for their resilience and support during this journey," he added. "We have learnt to depend on his resilience to drive the kind of transformation that South Africa expects of our organisation.

Totally understand where Phakamani Hadebe is coming from, being Eskom CEO is probably the most complex and challenging job in South Africa post 2001. Wishing him good health and the very best in his future endeavors!

Hamba kahle

I can imagine. He must have seen the wholesale looting/corruption that has taken place at Eskom leaving us where we are now.

What unimaginable demands? Having to make business decisions like any other CEO in the private sector ?

Kganthe be a nagana gore gore bose goba CEO ya mo go nang le bohodu?😂

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

An inside engineer will surface _those people know everything from planning to delivering electricity at our homes.

Get an experienced Engineer with knowledge of Business Sustainability and he ir she will do the job without any stress.

Is there anyone brave enough to come and save Eskom..

turing_1991 A good man resigned, very concerning. 🤔

We can see where this is going!

I'll stick around to see who replaces you

ADaniel26099125 What died unimaginable refer to if there is nothing new under the sun? I can imagine promotion into incompetence easily!

mduKuPhela We don't care, as long we wil go with Pravin

But it was obvious u were not up to the challenge from the beginning.

I get this

Voetsek Phakamani Voetsek

That's the Engineer's job without political interference.

So in short. He is resigning because, Eskom makes him 'sick'.

A failed Brexit deal in the UK led to a resignation & 'health' reasons in South Africa. A 'head scratcher' to the latter.

Something is fishy here

They will deploy another useless cadre

Does nobody learn? This is worst than the TITANIC and the ship sank. HELLO!

Only if we could get Mr Maroga back

Cue load shedding to return...🙄

Him and her swapping roles?

bring back brain molefe.

He is lying...he was told to make way for Maria Ramos...

BringBackBrianMolefe

Good Riddance Mr Load Shedding, Bye Now 👋
