De Ruyter claims R1bn stolen monthly from Eskom
JOHANNESBURG - Not millions, but at least R1bn is stolen from Eskom every month according to outgoing CEO Andre de Ruyter.
De Ruyter says his attempts to stop the scourge could be behind last year's attempt on his life.
He said, "my rough estimate of what is stolen from Eskom is about R1-billion a month and we've made some inroads. We've started closing the taps and that doesn't make you any friends. Is difficult to speculate on who might have wanted to make an attempt on my life but the people with motive, there's a pretty long list."
De Ruyter was speaking on My Guest Tonight With Annika Larsen.
