Skelm will be keeping a beady eye on the career of Department of Housing director-general Itumuleng Kotsoane, who’s been in his job just seven weeks.
He and his deputy, Mziwonke Dlabantu, gave evidence last week to parliament’s standing committee on public accounts, Scopa, about a damning report by auditor-general Shauket Fakie on the irregular allocation of R320m to people who didn’t qualify for housing subsidies.
They dissembled spectacularly, to the displeasure of the committee, not to mention their boss, Housing Minister Lindiwe Sisulu.
Sisulu was so underwhelmed that she issued a statement afterwards. “I am appalled at the low level of performance by my officials during the Scopa hearing,” it said.
