A former Transnet employee told the state capture inquiry that the CEO’s demeanour changed as soon as he objected to the awarding of a tender

Transnet CEO Brian Molefe’s “relaxed demeanour” changed very quickly when a subordinate disagreed with him over the awarding of a lucrative tender, the state capture commission heard on Monday.

At issue was Molefe’s controversial decision to overturn the awarding of a system network contract to Neotel, giving it to his preferred bidder T-Systems instead. “I don’t think I had much of a choice, I thought my employment would be ended,” he told the commission, which is chaired by deputy chief justice Raymond Zondo.Van der Westhuizen explained that Molefe was in a relaxed mood but his demeanour started to change very quickly when he expressed a “different view” on the contract.

Van der Westhuizen said T-Systems squeezed through a R248m discount to Transnet, curiously after the tender process had been concluded. He stressed that the timing of the discount was not appropriate.Van der Westhuizen said Neotel wrote to Transnet after receiving a letter of regret regarding the contract, requesting reasons. He said the relationship between Neotel and Transnet was “extremely strained” after that.

_Dineo_M Brian must go back to eskom to rescue it. Brilliant Ceo

Brian dug own grave, can't wait to see him appear at statecapture Commission and eventually Batohi taking him through courts and prosecuted

I will only believe in Batohi and Cronje after I see crooks such as this cry baby in court like their friend who was busy during inauguration.

Okay they say this guy got a PHD , and highly intelligent... but

The appropriate description was that Brian Molefe was Transnet Dictator abetted by pliant Zuma stooge Ben Ngubane.

OPINIONISTA: The NPA – On a trail of dishonesty and dirty laundryWhen Advocate Shamila Batohi started work four months ago as National Director of Public Prosecutions (NDPP), expectations were high that some high-profile politicians and businesspeople would soon be charged with corruption, fraud, money-laundering and other crimes of dishonesty. But it was naïve to expect that corruption prosecutions were imminent. Although the recent establishment of an investigative directorate within the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) might speed things up, don’t expect to see Brian Molefe, Markus Jooste, Ace Magashule, or Bosasa’s Gavin Watson behind bars in the near future.

Transnet employee accuses Molefe of 'steamrolling decisions'A former Transnet employee appeared before the State Capture Inquiry on Tuesday. Why has Molefe not been hauled before court and charged? The same with dozens of other bloody thieves. Charge and postpone for further investigation. In the interim they will crap themselves. So what..?
