By A Correspondent- Zimbabwean authorities were today left with an egg in the face after Eskom issued a statement rejecting claims that they had received payment for Zimbabwe’s electricity debt.

Zimbabwe’s Energy Minister Fortune Chasi, recently revealed that the country had made a significant payment to Eskom in order to clear the country’s debt.

Chasi told the media that the country has made a payment of R144-million to the power utility, after impending engagements that would see Eskom allowing the passage of 400 megawatts into the country’s grid.

Eskom however trashed the claims saying that the power utility had not received a penny from Zimbabwe.
