Transformer oil can not be used for frying chips nor whatever which is edible, if one uses transformer oil in preparing food, that food can not be eaten. But the main purpose is used in multiplying the oils they sold in markets as well as mixing with diesel which they sell to those trucks which carry sand, bricks and quarry not those false believes mentioned above.

Nkhani apa siyoti zimayambitsa leprosy or substandard bed-performance. Izi zongoopsezera. Akufuna anthu adziopa zimenezo! Why can’t you, ESCOM make your oil unattractive or unpalatable? This can’t be an issue worth sitting on the media for! If you continue putting good cooking oil in your transformers, it will be difficult for selfish business men and poor Malawians to avoid it! Just put your house in order!

Damn ESCOM is really stupid thinking people will believe that Leprosy comes from transformer oil !!!! Is that the standard of education of people working in ESCOM ? Why don’t you add red dye to the oil, if you can’t do it yourself then get the oil manufacturer to add it for you. People will not cook chips and chicken in red oil. Where is the 300Mw coal power station that was promised years ago ? The lake is going down and by September Escom will start crying that the ponds are not full, the wind is in the wrong… Read more »

The issue of consumption of food cooked in transformer oil is a non-issue. Escom and other African power authorities in Africa where this is a common occurence need to think out of the box.

Hence an additive was mixed with the spirit to make it unpalatable; voila you no longer have cases of drunk medical staff because the concoction is not drinkable any longer. Escom needs to specify transformer oil which has an additive that will make it not palatable. All the… Read more »

Vandalizing ESCOM equipment is bad and has to be condemned. However Mr Mpekasambo should not make declarations without evidence. The last time I checked Leprosy is a contagious disease caused by a bacteria called Mycobacterium leprae. This bacteria is transmitted through contact and has nothing to do with transformer oil. Please use evidence, scientifically proven , before you scare the public about some contagious diseases. Otherwise some articulate people will never take you seriously.

Where were ESCOM all these days, where were they leaving such important messages to Malawians. They have finally communicated well and to many people. This issue of transformers is really not for ESCOM only but for us as well. Good initiative, when is this TV programme broadcasted.
