Ferial Haffajee: Inside Mkhwebane's latest investigation into SARS head Kieswetter

Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane is bringing a third economic institution, this time SARS, closer into target range. She is currently investigating whether or not SARS commissioner Edward Kieswetter has the requisite qualifications for the role he was appointed to in March and for which he took office in May, Fin24 has learnt.

The advert called for:"A relevant degree as recognised by SAQA , a postgraduate qualification will be an added advantage, a minimum of 10 years relevant Senior Management Experience within the Financial Sector."A Treasury statement on his appointment said:"Mr.

Mkhwebane’s investigators are probing whether all these degrees amount to a"relevant degree in finance/law/economics/tax/accounting" as required in the job spec. Kieswetter was appointed by Ramaphosa from a star-studded shortlist that included Nathaniel Mabetwa, Sunita Manik, Mark Kingon, Gene Ravele and Nazrien Kader. The appointment was not public. The anonymous complainant to Mkhwebane has said that the process should have been transparent.

"Moreso, that precedence was set when the head of the NPA and the SABC Board were appointed. Transparency is also a factor when Judges are interviewed for vacant posts. WHY IS THIS TRANSPARENCY PRINCIPLE NOT APPLIED IN THE CASE OF THE SARS COMMISSIONER? Which is also a position of equal importance.

ferialhaffajee Didn't the EFF oppose Kieswetter ? Who is the PP working for ?

ferialhaffajee Truly I see the President and his executives having a serious problems in building this country and it economist ,when we are still having a person like this heading or PP .If really that's what she investigating its true ,I hope is not true

ferialhaffajee The plot thickens. It is as if she is a sleeper agent that has been activated in a fight.

ferialhaffajee Is it not a strategy to intensify taking control of SARS? Who is the ' anonymous ' complainant? I suspect........👤

ferialhaffajee Can this idiot not focus on the crimes that have crippled the economy of this country ? Aka Zupta !

ferialhaffajee It doesn't take a rocket surgeon to realise that this Public Protector is working for those who are terrified of SARS and in particular its investigating ability. To find out who the backers are, follow the money back to who is paying her personal liabilities for recklessness.

ferialhaffajee She is not even hiding the fact that she is a stooge for the Zuptas and EFF. She is being a political pawn in plain sight. It's actually unbelievable what the corrupt in this country can get away with.
