The Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa (Prasa) has had to function without a chief financial officer for more than seven months, MPs belonging to the Standing Committee on Public Accounts (Scopa) heard on Tuesday.

Minister of Transport Dipuo Peters told the finance watchdog that she has never seen or met Prasa’s CFO since she was appointed to the position in June 2014.

“The CFO apparently has a medical condition and it impacts her performance,” Khena said. “She hasn’t been at work for quite a long time. She came back two to three weeks ago, after her request for medical boarding had been declined.”

Prasa chairperson Popo Molefe added that the CFO had a psychiatric condition which led her to be “unstable” at times, but that Prasa was taking steps to ask her to resign from her position.

But - "We have a good story to tell".


.... but not too unstable to keep drawing a huge salary.

Defective supply chain management systems, which have led to irregular expenditure of R550m, fruitless and wasteful expenditure of close to R20m and the awarding of an unsolicited proposal to the value of R91m are but some of the issues the auditor general raised in his report.

In addition, the agency reported a loss of R1.18m for the 2014/15 financial year.

Just another day in ANC controlled South Africa.
