Mashazi found guilty of improper conduct: Public Protector
Public Protector finds former Ekurhuleni manager Mashazi guilty of improper conduct
Former Ekurhuleni city manager Dr Imogen Mashazi has been found guilty of improper conduct for appointing Ndumiso Gcwabe as Divisional Head for Security and loss control in the Metro Police Department. The appointment was deemed improper because Gcwabe did not meet the required National Qualifications Framework (NQF) level seven qualification, and the city's verification process could not confirm his qualifications with the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA).
In response, the Public Protector has instructed the Executive Mayor to present the report to Council, who must consider taking legal action to review the appointment process. The current city manager has also been ordered to train HR practitioner Bongani Khoza, who remains employed by the city.
