Transport minister Fikile Mbalula said he had studied the judgment and was going to concede his battle to keep Prasa administrator Bongisizwe Mpondo, above, in his position.Transport minister Fikile Mbalula has thrown in the towel in his fight to keep Bongisizwe Mpondo as the acting group CEO and accounting authority of the Passenger Rail Agency of SA .
“We found no need to delay [by] appealing the judgment. We have always said that we want to bring about stability in the Prasa operations,” Mbalula said. “Therefore, under these circumstances Prasa warranted urgent and decisive intervention. The court did not agree with our interpretation and the application of section 49 of the PFMA,” he explained.
Mbalula then announced that the Treasury had appointed Badisa Matshego as accounting authority of Prasa in compliance with the court order.
