DA holds National Day of Action against Eskom’s tariff hike

VAAL TRIANGLE - The DA will stage a National Day of Action today across all nine provinces to protest against Eskom's proposed 36% electricity tariff increase. This follows Eskom’s request for an additional R8-billion make-up tariff. DA spokesperson Kevin Mileham says the increases are unaffordable and detrimental to South Africans. He emphasised that mass action precedes a crucial parliamentary debate on Thursday.
