South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa has cancelled plans to attend the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos over the ongoing energy crisis in his country, his spokesman has said.
The country is facing its biggest ever power crisis with people experiencing rolling blackouts of up to six hours a day.
Mr Ramaphosa was due to lead a government delegation to the event, the AFP news agency reports.
But he will instead hold talks with leaders of political parties and the state-run power company Eskom, said presidential spokesman Vincent Magwenya.
"President Cyril Ramaphosa has already engaged with the leadership of Eskom and National Energy Crisis Committee(NECCOM) and those meetings will continue," he said.
