Eskom’s proposed 8.8% electricity price hike—double current inflation—stuns households, especially as the minister claims to fight customer exploitation. While he cites a 907% price surge since 2007 (actually closer to 1300%), the irony deepens: Eskom just reported a R30 billion profit yet still demands hikes that threaten key industries.
