ANA reports that the SA National Civic Organisation (Sanco) on Monday decried Brian Molefe's labour court action to challenge his removal as Eskom CEO as an attempt to hold the power utility to ransom.
Molefe, who was fired as Eskom CEO last week, on Sunday indicated his intention to take his former employer and Public Enterprises Minister Lynne Brown to court over his dismissal. Molefe was due to launch his urgent application in the Labour Court on Monday. Sanco spokesperson Jabu Mahlangu said the civic organisation was concerned that the Molefe saga was overshadowing delivery on Eskom's mandate, including its role as a critical and strategic contributor to government's goal of security of electricity supply, as well as the country's economic growth and prosperity. He went on the state: "Molefe's sense of entitlement is seemingly encouraged by the Eskom board which should be dissolved for putting personal interests above good corporate governance and national interest."
