South Africans are using humour to get through the dark times during laod-shedding.
File: Stage 4 load-shedding was implemented on Monday morning and Eskom said South Africans should brace themselves as it could last until Wednesday.
JOHANNESBURG - South Africans are using humour to help pass the time as rotational load-shedding continues across the country. The latest trend was started by local comedian Donovan Goliath when he asked his followers on Twitter to replace one word in a movie title with Eskom."Replace one word in a movie title with Eskom", said Goliath.
Several social media users have come up with a list of creative responses including"The Fault in Our Eskom" and"The diary of a mad black Eskom." South Africans have been battling rolling blackouts since Saturday, with more load-shedding expected on Wednesday.
