REPORT ON LYING MPUMA OFFICIALS FRIDAY

THE fate of 11 senior Mpumalanga officials accused of lying about their qualifications will be announced on Friday when the Public Service Commission hands its investigation report on the issue to Premier Ndaweni Mahlangu. The 11 unnamed officials reportedly over-stated or invented their qualifications to secure high-paying government jobs. PSC chairman Stanley Sangweni will personally hand the detailed investigation results and a reported three-page list of urgent recommendations to Mahlangu at a public ceremony.
