Former Eskom CEO Andre de Ruyter, who is currently a senior fellow at Yale, reveals his plans to come back home and possibly write another book. He left South Africa due to safety concerns after making serious allegations against ANC politicians and top government officials.
Former Eskom CEO Andre de Ruyter, who is currently a senior fellow at Yale , says his future plans include coming back home and possibly writing another book. Last year, De Ruyter left South Africa after an eNCA interview wherein he made serious allegations against ANC politicians and top government officials. These explosive revelations put his life in danger, and he was advised to leave the country. He spent the next few months in Europe.
“It enabled me to be calm with the confidence that I am in a place where it will be difficult to track me down,” he said. In August 2023, De Ruyter joined Yale’s Jackson School of Global Affairs as a senior fellow for the 2023 to 2024 academic year. De Ruyter said he feels safe in the United States as he doubts the tentacles of the criminal networks he implicated extend to where he lives.“It is a great privilege to teach at Yale. I find it hugely stimulating and engaging with bright faculty members and students,” he said
