According to Sunday Times, Maroga has filed a civil claim at the Johannesburg high court demanding "reasonable damages" or reinstatement.
He is suing his former employer, its acting chief executive and chairperson Mpho Makwana, and the Minister of Public Enterprises Barbara Hogan. He accuses the board of conspiring to fire him illegally under the veil of a voluntary resignation.
