ESKOM IS ‘LOOKING FOR LOVE’

In the TikTok clip which has gone viral, content creator “GC Celebrity” poses as “Eskom Malahleni”, who is “looking for love”.

“Eskom” says in the clip of his personality: “Some people say I’m not very bright. And I tend to have a bit of a dark side. I don’t like people that are needy, because when people need me too much, I just switch off.

“I tend to have blackouts, they have been random.

“I’m a performer, so I love being on stage, you will always find me on different stages”

When asked what his turn-ons were, Eskom replied “Nothing”.

He then had a squizz at his potential dates; “Generator” and “Candle” who got a thumbs down for being “too loud” and a “hot head” respectively.

However “J Coal” who “looked a little dark” was just the right fit. “He looks like he can keep the fire burning”, “Eskom” quipped.
