Mashaba fires another official in corruption crackdown

Johannesburg - A 35-year-old official is the latest to be fired by Joburg mayor Herman Mashaba in the city’s bid to rid itself of corruption.

The official is facing a criminal charge after the city opened a case against him.

The man, who has been working for the council for 11 years, joins over 100 officials who have either been suspended or fired, or have voluntarily resigned, for a variety of offences, including fraud, corruption, theft, and unauthorised, irregular, fruitless or wasteful expenditure, since Mashaba took over the municipality a year ago.

Eighty-one employees were suspended, 12 resigned and seven were dismissed.

The latest official to lose his job is a former community development department facilities manager who was working at the Dlamini Multipurpose Centre in Soweto. He was arrested on Thursday and charged with theft.

The man, who cannot yet be identified, was expected to appear at the Protea Magistrate’s Court on Friday.

According to Mashaba, the former employee rented out the hall to a prominent pastor for R21 000 in 2014 without authorisation. This was discovered by an investigation previously conducted in 2016 by the city’s Group Forensic and Investigation Services (GFIS).

At this stage, it looks like Mashaba is doing more for the DA's image than Mmusi.

Well, that's not hard.

Doing better than a misogynist-biblical-threaded-mushhead supporter?

Easy-peasy.

Fired. No handshakes? Charges laid?

I don't support the DA, because they are just a bit too socialist for my liking, but when I read stuff like this, I will be voting for them. A clean socialist broom is better than what we have at present.
