Former Eskom CEO Andre de Ruyter informed Parliament’s Standing Committee on Public Accounts (SCOPA) that he accepts the invitation to engage the Committee on allegations he raised about rampant corruption, theft, maladministration, sabotage, criminal cartels and financial irregularities at the power utility.
DE RUYTER’S EXPLOSIVE ALLEGATIONS ABOUT CORRUPTION AND MALFEASANCE AT ESKOM
De Ruyter made the startling revelations during a televised interview aired on 23 February and was immediately asked to vacate his office shortly after. He has kept a low profile since then.
SCOPA received a response to their invitation from de Ruyter’s legal representatives. The former Eskom boss indicated he would present a written submission to the Committee about the issues raised. He is agreeable to appearing in person at a date determined by the Committee.

“The committee believes that it is important for it to engage with Mr de Ruyter on these issues in line with its constitutional mandate of holding Eskom accountable on matters related to the financial administration of the power utility, including the procurement of goods and services,” said SCOPA Chairperson Mkhuleko Hlengwa.
