Dr Dovhani Mamphiswana, the director-general of the Public Service Commission, has been suspended with full pay after he allegedly hired his mistress.

Johannesburg - President Cyril Ramaphosa has placed Dr Dovhani Mamphiswana, the director-general of the Public Service Commission on precautionary suspension.Acting spokesperson for the Presidency, Tyrone Seale, said Ramaphosa had informed Mamphiswana of his suspension last Thursday.

“The president’s suspension of the director-general does not in any way constitute a judgment on the part of the president,” said Seale. The report was compiled by Advocate Smanga Sethene on the instruction of the State attorney in Pretoria. During the investigation, friends of the mistress alleged one of the baby showers was held within PSC offices.

Seale said a report on the investigation was presented to the president in his capacity as the executive authority designated by law to deal with career incidents, including disciplinary matters, pertaining to Directors-General.
