  • Johannesburg - Freedom Front Plus leader Dr Pieter Mulder will present Eskom management with a huge candle and the FF Plus's database of 1 800 skilled unemployed or under-employed South Africans on Monday.

    The ceremony will take place at the main entrance to Eskom headquarters at Megawatt Park, north of Johannesburg, said the FF+.

    "The purpose of the ceremony is to convey to Eskom the frustration of members of the public who have been plagued by Eskom's load-shedding practices (often having to settle for candlelight).

    "It also is to offer Eskom the services of hundreds of skilled South Africans who would have loved to be employed by them, but for the limitations of affirmative action practices," said the FF+.
