South African government has reappointed Dudu Myeni as the chairperson of South African Airways (SAA), the loss-making state-owned airline, reports Mail & Guardian.
The Cabinet said Myeni, an ally of President Jacob Zuma, was appointed alongside 11 other board members to the board of SAA. The new team will meet Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan, who will provide direction from a shareholder perspective, it said in a statement.
On Thursday a finance ministry source said officials in the department had opposed Myeni’s selection, but had managed to push through some preferred candidates to the cash-strapped airline’s new board.
SAA has been surviving on state-guaranteed loans and has failed to submit financial statements for the past two years, with results for 2015/16 held back after treasury refused to grant it R5-billion in additional loan guarantees.
Myeni’s reappointment comes two days after asset manager Futuregrowth said it had halted lending to state-owned firms over concerns of political interference in their administration.
In December Zuma denied rumours that he had had an affair with Myeni or that their ties had led to the sacking of then-finance minister Nhlanhla Nene, who had rebuked Myeni for mismanaging a R1-billion deal with Airbus.
Critics say government plans to form a new committee to be supervised by Zuma that would oversee state-owned enterprises like SAA, limiting Gordhan’s control over firms.
