Johannesburg - PetroSA on Monday fired its CEO Sipho Mkhize with immediate effect, the parastatal said in a statement.
"The PetroSA Board acknowledges that Mr Mkhize has rights that he may choose to exercise, as a result of the decision against
him," it said.
"The Board will, in the meantime, continue to provide all necessary support to the PetroSA management in order to ensure minimal disruption to the company's operations."
The termination followed the outcome of a disciplinary process.
SABC reported Mkhize has been sacked for alleged corruption in the state-owned energy company.
PetroSA could not immediately be reached for further comment.
