In his testimony, Gordhan told the Zondo commission that former president Jacob Zuma was ”hellbent” on appointing Moyane as Sars commissioner, ignoring advice that there were more skilled and credible candidates for the job.
Zuma appointed Moyane in 2013 to replace Oupa Magashula, who had resigned after a recording surfaced in which he was heard promising a young woman a top post at the revenue collector. Gordhan told the inquiry that Zuma hastened the appointment and would not hear of any other candidates other than Moyane, whom he said was not subjected to competency processes.
The Nugent-led commission of inquiry that looked into the governance and structural failures at Sars in 2018 found that Moyane was reckless in his management of Sars. Moyane, who had been on suspension pending the inquiry, was fired by President Cyril Ramaphosa as recommended in the Nugent report.
