Shedding

For the second straight season, the Kings have been on the shedding aspect of the handshake line after shedding to the Edmonton Oilers within the first spherical of the Stanley Cup.

It has been more than a month since the load-shedding was announced but none of the political parties or NGOs have even spoken a word, barring a few exceptions which only sought a reduction in the hours of load-shedding.

Load shedding was previously expected to alternate between stage 4 and stage 5 load shedding in the daytime and evening peak, respectively.

Action SA president Herman Mashaba, however, rejected the announcement by Eskom and said: “This ludicrous announcement makes it clear that there still is no coherent plan to get us out of this mess nearly 15 years after load shedding began.
