Senior managers in the public service cost the State R4.1 billion and pocketed, on average, R811,235 a year -- while presiding over state machinery that barely reached half the targets set, the DA says

That is what you get when you let the rats run a cheese factory!
A dog will never guard over a roasted meat, never!
90% of them does not even have formal qualifications but are political deployees who knows only how to toyi toyi and exile antics which are far from being linked to public administration and management.
The rest are family members, friends and cohorts who are dodging hunger under the shade of free government grants/salaries.
Of course others are a bunch of girl friends who were hired to dodge maintenance orders and others are boyfriends/toy boys to entertain elite female members who want to rub stomachs with them every night since 90% of female government elite employees are divorced! Report Abuse

Tjo, this gravy train is now the ANC 5-course and dessert train, washed down with plenty JW Blue label. Sorry for kids who have no school books, food, teachers, decent hospital care, and very little future. Hope born-frees use their votes to make these robbers pay.

You are making an assumption that all of these senior officials are black. Take water affairs for example, its dominated by white senior managers due to obvious reasons, few blacks did chemistry to understand water issues, Treasury is the same, defence is the same. This is not a black or white thing. Our so called most progresive constitution is our bigest let down. Report Abuse

We have to admit that howeva much we want to blame and hate whites, that won't create jobs. Hating whites will not change ANC corrupt politicians behaviour. Blaming apartheid won't give our kids better education. Maybe we feel like this but it will NOT make our fat-cat politicians stop their wasted spending. WE have to vote UDM, Azapo, ACDP, IFP, Cope or DA - its up to the majority VOTERS to give the govt that we voted a big wake-up.!!!. Report Abuse

The perefomace management system in the public service is pathetic to say the least. Perhaps if they could put out a tender to one of the big auditing firms to manage the perfoarmavce system it may assist. The managers in public service seldom get their hands dirty doing real jobs. The come to work every day to hire contractors to do their jobs.
The idepenedent and impartial body could also be set up to look after the perfeomace system as favouritism is also commonplace. If one goes to work in the public sector coming from another company or fresh from college with ideal perfaomace standards they soon get used to mediocrity found in the public service. If the do not tow the line they get sidelinedand overlooked for promotion or any performance related benefit.
The system is pathetic and virtualy non-existent - existing only on policy. Report Abuse
