Mteto Nyati is right about Eskom’s overhaul

• Eskom's transmission assets will not be transferred to private interests.
• The transfer of Eskom's transmission assets is part of a broader plan to restructure the state-owned power utility, which aims to promote competition and access in the electricity market.
• The Presidency has reprimanded Mteto Nyati for questioning the government's plan, while Prof. Lucky Mathebula argues that the true concern is the constitutional implications of Eskom's public character.
