Standard Bank drags major Eskom supplier to court

Standard Bank has dragged the directors of Continental Africa Power Suppliers (ContiPower) — a major supplier of maintenance products to Eskom — to court over an unpaid debt of R22 million.

According to a City Press report, former South African ambassador to the US, Sheila Sisulu, is among the implicated directors, along with Jokhomo Rammotsi, Tlalane Lesoli, and Erich Herbst.
 
They didn't pay... why the headline news when this is just the process that should be followed?

Is there an ambassador to the US now? I thought it was Rasool who had been expelled. Is the write up given of the article correct?

In 1997, she was appointed South Africa’s Consul General in Washington, D.C., tasked with attracting foreign investors to South Africa. Two years later, she became Ambassador to the United States, becoming South Africa’s first Black ambassador to the U.S

And the usual virtue signalling sycophant suspects blew her trumpet:

In 1993, Sisulu received the Nedbank Femina Award, followed by the South African Women for Women Education Award in 1998. She was awarded honorary doctorates from the University of Maryland, College Park and the City University of New York. In April 2017, Rhodes University also granted her an honorary doctorate in recognition of her efforts in promoting food security for vulnerable communities worldwide.

South Africa ranked last out of 57 countries assessed in the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study, which tested the reading ability of 400,000 students globally in 2021.
