South Africa: Award Given to KZN Head of Treasury Raises Concerns

press release

The IFP in the KwaZulu Natal Legislature has raised its grave concerns about the recent award which was presented to Mr Simiso Magagula, the Head of Department of Finance as the best head of department for 2014 in the KZN Premier's service excellence awards.

"We are very perturbed about the award given to the head of department in view of the recent proclamation by President Jacob Zuma authorising the Special Investigating Unit to probe the mismanagement of finances in the province. This begs a question of how such people can be rewarded while there is an investigation in their department," said IFP Leader in the KZN Legislature, Mr Blessed Gwala.
