I know this tweet will cause major chest pains for some, so take a ‘Grandpa’ after reading it.— Ian Cameron (@IanCameron23) May 14, 2023 I had been polishing my resignation letter for some weeks, it having become clear that there was no reasonable prospect of working productively with the new board, and with political support evaporating. The wholesale firing of the previous board, with the sole exception of Dr Rod Crompton, was in my view a grievous error of governance. I had to again start from scratch to explain the strategy, the turnaround plan and, for some of the directors, the very basics of the business. This was an energy-sapping process, particularly when sniping comments were made by board members, or snap opinions based on an incomplete understanding of the issues.

Any copying or distribution of a pirated ebook, or any forwarding of a link to the pirated ebook, is unlawful. We will take legal action against individuals who are circulating pirated copies, which may include criminal complaints once we have collected all the necessary information.” ANDRE DE RUYTER RESPONDS The author is analytical and logical, his arguments, whether you believe them or not, are sound. This will help readers from any political orientation to at least sympathise with his worldviews and approaches because he substantiates it with facts and reasoning.On top of being more direct on the politicians involved, de Ruyter also expands on the criminal syndicates robbing Eskom dry and adding fresh allegations of interference at the power utility. This echoed de Ruyter’s input at a recent Standing Committee on Public Accounts (Scopa) briefing, where de Ruyter directed all questions about the politicians’ identities to Gordhan and Mufamadi.
