Yes, but who else - besides Reuben September - was subjected to this "rigorous evaluation process" and subsequently rejected and why? - not expecting an answer from Telkodemonopolies, just finding it difficult to believe that its board members did their due diligence.

Well, all I can say is, thank God we don't have a politically appointed one that doesn't know jack about telecoms.

The board said it had followed a rigorous evaluation process.

Do you care about the SA public?

No

Will you keep broadband prices as high as possible and continue ripping the SA public a new one?

Of course.....

Are you an ANC member?

Naturally....

Will you make promises and never deliver?

Oh, thats comes naturally....

Will you bribe the Minister of Telecorruptions?

Already promised her a years supply of extra large doughnuts..delivered to parliment fresh.

How will you fight off the competition?

There's competetion?

Are you a qualified spin doctor?

I will delight the public with our super delightful service...and Telkoms new innovation...DIAL up with a free 5 minutes online and you can download movies and music and and and only capped at 200 MEGABYTES blah blah blah....

And so the the board followed a rigorous evaluation process.....Congratulations Mr. September

Trade union Solidarity expressed “satisfaction” and said because September had worked his way through the ranks, he would have a greater understanding of the needs of employees and the need to create a healthy working environment.

At least the Unions are happy that their members won't be "overworked" because "efficiency" stays out of the Telkom Dictionary
