A North West man is claiming R250 million from Eskom for preventing power cuts through his own prayers, Beeld newspaper reported on Wednesday.

Nelson Thabo Modupe, of Lichtenburg, has argued that he prevented power cuts during the 2010 Soccer World Cup through his prayers.

He is a member of the Zion Christian Church.

In a letter to Eskom he said the main reason for load shedding was lightning and wind, and that he had taken it upon...read more here: R250 million for saving Eskom through prayer
 
Lol, that takes some balls to come up with a story like that and actually take it to court
 
If one guy can save Eskom through prayer, then if we all work together I'm sure we can sink Sanral through swearing "whistling:

Apart from all the obvious issues with his claim, he would also have to prove that he was the only person that prayed for no power cuts. As a matter of fact, if even one other person prayed that all went well with the competition and did not even name load shedding specifically, Mr Modupe would need to share the money. And wouldn't the money actually need to go to God for preventing the cuts in the first place? This guy's plan is so full of holes, Iam3G is probably afraid of it.
 
For a moment there I thought we were in 'merica, cause stuff like that always seem to happen there. Maybe the disease is spreading...
 
I can see some weird requests starting to come out the woodwork if this even remotely gets considered.
But i think Eskom will prolly just present there work a rounds and data for what they did for the world cup. but then that makes you think why all the other times did load shed happen and not then.

Someone and i'm going to say this in afrikaans "draai ons 'n rat voor die oë"

Ag it'll get thrown out. I mean even of a court could legally say that his prayers helped Eskom, which they can't, unless Eskom actually asked him to do it with the agreement that they would pay him if there were no power cuts during the world cup, then he did it of his own free will and they are under no obligation.

Otherwise you could just go round doing random stuff for people without their knowledge or consent and charge them for it.
 
If we get another price increase then when know where to point fingers to. I would just blame all future load shedding on this guy and say he's doing a crap job, he will never be able to leave his house.
