"description": "Daily Maverick is an independent online news publication and weekly print newspaper in South Africa.\r\n\r\nIt is known for breaking some of the defining stories of South Africa in the past decade, including the Marikana Massacre, in which the South African Police Service killed 34 miners in August 2012.\r\n\r\nIt also investigated the Gupta Leaks, which won the 2019 Global Shining Light Award.\r\n\r\nThat investigation was credited with exposing the Indian-born Gupta family and former President Jacob Zuma for their role in the systemic political corruption referred to as state capture.\r\n\r\nIn 2018, co-founder and editor-in-chief Branislav ‘Branko’ Brkic was awarded the country’s prestigious Nat Nakasa Award, recognised for initiating the investigative collaboration after receiving the hard drive that included the email tranche.\r\n\r\nIn 2021, co-founder and CEO Styli Charalambous also received the award.\r\n\r\nDaily Maverick covers the latest political and news developments in South Africa with breaking news updates, analysis, opinions and more.",

The sight of the National Treasury telling the nation that Eskom was lying. At the same time, Eskom was accusing the National Treasury of “gaming”, of playing games with regulations and laws, all to protect itself. If ever you wanted proof that the instability in the ANC was going to have an impact on government, on governance, on our everyday lives, this was it.

"description": "Eskom is the primary electricity supplier and generator of power in South Africa. It is a state-owned enterprise that was established in 1923 as the Electricity Supply Commission (ESCOM) and later changed its name to Eskom. The company is responsible for generating, transmitting, and distributing electricity to the entire country, and it is one of the largest electricity utilities in the world, supplying about 90% of the country's electricity needs. It generates roughly 30% of the electricity used\r\nin Africa.\r\n\r\nEskom operates a variety of power stations, including coal-fired, nuclear, hydro, and renewable energy sources, and has a total installed capacity of approximately 46,000 megawatts. The company is also responsible for maintaining the electricity grid infrastructure, which includes power lines and substations that distribute electricity to consumers.\r\n\r\nEskom plays a critical role in the South African economy, providing electricity to households, businesses, and industries, and supporting economic growth and development. However, the company has faced several challenges in recent years, including financial difficulties, aging infrastructure, and operational inefficiencies, which have led to power outages and load shedding in the country.\r\n\r\nDaily Maverick has reported on this extensively, including its recently published investigations from the Eskom Intelligence Files which demonstrated extensive sabotage at the power utility. Intelligence reports obtained by Daily Maverick linked two unnamed senior members of President Cyril Ramaphosa’s Cabinet to four criminal cartels operating inside Eskom. The intelligence links the cartels to the sabotage of Eskom’s power stations and to a programme of political destabilisation which has contributed to the current power crisis.",

"description": "The African National Congress (ANC) is a social-democratic political party in South Africa. It has been the governing party of South Africa since the 1994 general election. It was the first election in which all races were allowed to vote.\r\n\r\nThe ANC is the oldest political party in South Africa, founded in 1912. It is also the largest political party in South Africa, with over 3 million members.\r\n\r\nThe African National Congress is a liberation movement that fought against apartheid, a system of racial segregation that existed in South Africa from 1948 to 1994. The ANC was banned by the South African government for many years, but it continued to operate underground.\r\n\r\nIn 1990, the ban on the ANC was lifted and Nelson Mandela was released from prison. The ANC then negotiated a peaceful transition to democracy in South Africa.\r\n\r\nSince 1994, the ANC has governed South Africa under a system of majority rule.\r\n\r\nThe African National Congress has been criticised for corruption and for failing to address some of the challenges facing South Africa, such as poverty and unemployment.\r\n\r\nThe African National Congress is a complex and diverse organisation. It is a coalition of different political factions, including communists, socialists, and trade unionists.\r\n\r\nThe ANC has always claimed to be a broad church that includes people from all walks of life. It is a powerful force in South African politics and it will continue to play a major role in the country's future.\r\n\r\nThe party's support has declined over the years and it currently faces a threat of losing control of government in the 2024 national elections.",
