The African Christian Democratic Party has expressed its disappointment at reports of Eskom alleging going to embark on reducing the number of white engineers by 1 081, while white artisans by 2 179.

However Eskom has refuted this claims as untrue.ACDP President Kenneth Meshoe said such a decision will impact negatively and hamper on economic growth.

Meshoe said “we believe that Eskom needs as many skilled individuals and engineers as possible to address this crisis.

Meshoe said “we are surprised that while we are facing this electricity crisis Eskom can come up with a decision to reduce the number of white engineers that we have.

This is the wrong time to look at the races and quotas, Meshoe added.
