Solidarity says Molefe is criminally liable for Eskom involvement
The trade union wants him to pay back the ‘unlawful’ R30m pension pay-out he received — not to mention the R57,000 a month he has been getting from the SANDF
Trade union Solidarity is gunning for former Eskom boss Brian Molefe for his "unlawful" R30m pension windfall from the power utility. The trade union is set to reveal its litigation strategy to get Molefe to pay back the money in a press briefing scheduled for Thursday morning at the union’s headquarters in Kloofsig‚ Pretoria. The union said in a statement that it will disclose detailed information gleaned from minutes and documentation on Molefe’s resignation after the release of former public protector Thuli Madonsela’s scathing State of Capture report‚ his sudden early retirement‚ his inauguration as an MP‚ his reinstatement at Eskom, and his subsequent dismissal. Solidarity said it will also disclose information regarding deliberate misrepresentations, as well as Molefe’s participation in approving his own advancement.
