NUM welcomes the appointment of Eskom Group Chief Executive Officer

The National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) welcomes the appointment of Mr Matshela Koko as an acting Group Chief Executive Officer of Eskom. Koko has gained a lot of experience within the company since he joined Eskom as an engineer. With his experience, he will be able to steer Eskom into the right direction. 

The NUM advice to the Acting GCE is that he must always consider all stakeholders when making decisions, in particular, trade unions.

We call upon Mr Koko to continue with an implementation of income differentials that seeks to dismantle and bury unjustified race and gender income disparities that are still prevalent 22 years after the dismantling of apartheid.
