Deputy Finance Minister David Masondo says he does not know suspended Joburg Roads Agency boss Tshepo Mahanuke, who claimed he was a mentor. The Gauteng government has ordered a forensics investigation into Mahanuke’s former company.

The graphic shows that since 2017, the JRA has steadily dropped qualification requirements and hiked the salary of its chief executive. When Mahanuke applied in 2022, the agency had changed the job specs to an NQF Level 7 qualification and a bachelor’s degree, adding “operations management” as a requirement. Mahanuke graduated in operations management.

“I would also expect that the person would demonstrate competence at the master’s degree level — which is an ability to formulate research-based investigation questions. Of course, this is aside from the expected management and leadership competencies that are normally required of such a position.” the JRA boss did with the city’s media service when he started working earlier in 2022 shows that he foregrounded being a “Doctor” and also said he was a Harvard graduate.

The suspended CEO also said he is a member of the Southern Africa Research and Innovation Management Association, but he is not listed on its register of professionals.Mahanuke did not only fool the city administration in Johannesburg and the Gauteng government.
