Reading Time: < 1 minute

Transport Minister Joe Maswanganyi has defended his appointment of former South African Airways Board Chairperson Dudu Myeni as his advisor.

Myeni landed the top job only months after her term ended as the airline’s Board chairperson.

Opposition parties have strongly criticized her new appointment.

Maswanganyi, who spoke to the SABC during the launch of the holiday road safety campaign, says there’s nothing to disqualify Myeni from being his advisor.

“She is a South African who is fit and proper. She has never been found guilty by any court of law. If you are a South African who is fit and proper with relevant experience from the SOEs sector I can employ that person if that person qualifies.”
