IT IS galling that institutions meant to stimulate economic growth are becoming political. Comrades, or what is known as cadre deployment, reigns supreme.

Parastatals are being turned into cash cows where incompetent chief executives milk taxpayers .

Look at Eskom, Transnet and SABC. Dali Mpofu was given at least R10million and Jacob Maroga is claiming R85million for the termination of his contract though the Eskom board said he had resigned.
