The Office of the Public Protector has found that the University of South Africa’s (Unisa) appointment of Johannes Matlala is in breach of its policies.
The appointment was to the position of physical security services manager on a fixed-term contract.
The Public Protector’s Office’s investigation originated from a complaint that a member of the Freedom Front Plus, Anton Alberts, had lodged in May 2024.
This was on behalf of a whistleblower.
Acting spokesperson Ndili Msoki says the appointment is also against Unisa’s conditions of employment.
“The appointment process failed to comply with the university’s procedures for the appointment of contract employees, fixed term contractors, temporary employee service workers and independent contractors. The Public Protector found among other things that although Unisa policy allows limited post-retirement fixed term and exceptional circumstances, the process followed in this case was procedurally flawed.”
