Chairperson of Parliament’s finance watchdog the Standing Committee on Public Accounts Mkhuleko Hlengwa will tender an apology to Eskom board member Busisiwe Mavuso after a heated confrontation over the state-owned power utility. | Fin24

Scopa chair Mkhuleko Hlengwa will tender an apology to Eskom board member Busisiwe Mavuso.

Since the incident, Hlengwa has remained mum on the matter, but after meeting with the national executive committee of the IFP on Monday, he said the situation could have been"handled better". The IFP NEC requested a briefing from him, and Hlengwa thanked his party for the guidance on the matter. Regarding the DA’s complaint, Hlengwa said he looks forward to appearing before the Powers and Privileges Committee, should he be asked to do so."While my exchange with Eskom during the Scopa meeting escalated in the manner that it did, it was an exercise of my responsibility as chairperson to caution against attempts to draw Scopa into partisan politicking in the discharge of its work," he said.

BusiMavuso2 I listened to Pravin yesterday talking about Eskom and state capture destroyed that organisation and how they(‘not thugs ANC new group’) are fixing Eskom yesterday - so can u balance me out here sisi - what is it that u said that he didn’t say except u were just too gentle🤷‍♀️

Fin24 When?

BusiMavuso2 Fin24 That's the best thing to do.

Fin24 He is in an anc pocket somewhere.

RobvdH13 Fin24 The behaviour of Hlengwa was revolting. Serious stain on the name and credibility of SCOPA.

Fin24 There was no need to apologise. That lady must account for what she is being paid for. She must justify the money she gets and leave politics to politicians. She is so unruly

Fin24 MkhulekoHlengwa I hope you’ll invite her again so she can further explain her claims, failing which, your apology means nothing. You bullied BusiMavuso2 & missed out on a great opportunity of getting to the root causes of Eskom mess. You protect ANC corrupt, be ashamed.

Fin24 Hlengwa is the biggest mistake of a politians. How can you stand for your opponent the ANC. Unless of course if you playing ball with them

Fin24 He’s overzealous

Fin24 We lived to see this crap that is happening in our country, thengiswe kanje izwe sibukele.

BusiMavuso2 Fin24 The formal crowning of an Askari BusiMavuso2. We see you dade. This will end in tears when whitey is done using you. Clever Blacks never learn.

Fin24 SCOPA chair MKHULEKO HLENGWA is IFP, but he wanted to act relevant to corrupt ANC led government? South Africans stand with Busisiwe Mavuso.. SA is in a mess cos of ANC led corruption.. Busisiwe told the truth. PutSouthAficansFirst IFPinParliament MkhulekoHlengwa VoetsekANC

Fin24 He is an ANC stooge

Fin24 Nooooooo

Fin24 Apologies must not be accepted. This person must step down from the role!!

Fin24 Xolisa Sthuphethu

Fin24 BusiMavuso2 you can rejoice now but history will judge harshly.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Fin24 Apology? Not enough! He must be disciplined! Wa phapha this boy! Too big for his boots!

Fin24 This guy wanted to please ANC now he's left alone embarrassed

Fin24 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

CoruscaKhaya Fin24 A politician apologizing? This one must learn a thing from MG Buthelezi he has never apologized in his life!

CoruscaKhaya Fin24 Theatre at Disneyland

AshrafGarda Fin24 But why does he root for the ANC ?

Fin24 Backtracking now, who must behave now?

Fin24 😂😂😂😂😂😂 yhooo

CoruscaKhaya Fin24 She should tell him to behave in future

Fin24 If Mkhuleko Hlengwa, apologises to Busisiwe then what about a government creepy who wrote this email?

Fin24 Bullies forced him to apologize, he succumbed.

Fin24 Corruption has blindfolded people shem🙉

BusiMavuso2 Fin24 He remains a damn ANC deployed fool.

Fin24 Surely his party was not happy because yesterday he was still blaming the board member. The apology is not sincere. He might have realised that he is on his own as the DA was also pushing against him .

Fin24 mthombothi

Fin24 I am glad he decided to apologize, he could've done it earlier but it's still not too late. He could have done better under those circumstances.

Fin24 He's a liability, he must step down.

BusiMavuso2 Fin24 He should apologize 😔

Fin24 Zuma man I think.

Fin24 His biased attitude has been exposes. He is not suited to chair the committee.

Fin24 I am pleased that MkhulekoHlengwa is to apologise. He is a decent chap, but it was his inexperience in this position that led to the situation. I am sure he will learn from it and that can only benefit SCOPA and all of us.

Fin24 Good Evening Kindly share my message if you can't assist. Can anyone please assist me with a food voucher so that I can buy some veggies to eat up until I receive my stipend. I'm currently a Bricklaying Apprentice busy with my practicals. Contact details 071 950 3434 Thanks

Fin24 I have said it before that history will judge Hlengwa as the first SCOPA Chairperson to defend the Anc corruption

Fin24 Will Hlengwa's apology be sincere?

Fin24 Will this apology ne sincere?
