The Institute of Race Relations (IRR) warned that load-shedding would continue to worsen if the government refuses to put value for money before race-based procurement. The IRR has written to Minister of Electricity Kgosientsho Ramokgopa to underscore the urgency of implementing the Zondo Commission’s recommendation of putting value for money first. Minister Ramokgopa’s warning that stage 7 or even stage 8 load-shedding was now possible shows that South Africans should brace themselves for worsening power cuts this winter.
