André de Ruyter to appear before Parliament next week to testify on his claims of corruption at Eskom

Not sure the ANC would want this dude on the stand.

In my experience, Mr de Ruyter appears a restrained, thoughtful character who speaks the truth whereas most politicians have a warped relationship with reality who could not negotiate the right direction if equipped with a compass and roadmap. It should make an interesting virtual non-meeting of minds.

Thank goodness for zoom! An indication of how unsafe it is for those who speak truth to power when danger stalks the halls of parliament.

"but he was released from his job at the end of February after making a series of astonishing claims in his television interview. DM " - Not astonishing at all. The mafia organisations have been on the table for a long time and Derek Watts and team has also provided the pictorials. Previously it was inferred that big politicians must be behind this corruption but Andre alone stepped up to the ANC Haka and named names.

AAAH. Typical ANC tactic... Shoot the messenger. So why are they not requesting testimony from the countless ANC cadres accused of corruption? Makes one drink!

I can't help wondering if the release of the information in an interview wasn't a clever move to get himself invited to parliament? I imagine there might be a gag clause in his departure agreement that might have silenced him had he simply gone quietly. I look forward to hearing what he has to say, I can't think he doesn't have the proof they ask for, so this is the opportunity to lay it all out (on demand from parliament).

All the evidence is with the top cop to whom ADR provided it in July LAST year. All this huffing and puffing by the anc in an attempt to put Mr DR on the wrong foot, and is just laughable. We all know the synonym of the anc is corruption.

hopefully he is out of reach and can disclose everything. Will it be televised unredacted?

If it was literally possible to 'burn down' "parliament" ... it would be very simple to 'eliminate' a single individual, should they show up there surely ?! Besides ... remember there are 'death/hit squads' operating here , with impunity almost guaranteed ! Hope AdR has his back covered.

The claims de Ruyter made were not “astonishing” but we were astonished that he had the bravery to stand up and be counted where the majority of business leaders have sat saying nothing about the degradation of this country and seemingly pervasive corruption.
