Good Work If You Can Get It 1

It’s not just glossy reports costing taxpayers millions, the salaries of top city management in Cape Town alone will cost R10 million this year. Now Cape Town Mayor Nomaindia Mfeketo said that those salaries are needed to “attract top people who had had experience in the private sector” which is true, in order to attract talent into government you need to pay them for their talent.

But if Cape Town municipal manager Wallace Mgoqi was in the private sector and was doing such a crap job as he is doing in the Cape Town municipality (N2 gateway project stalling, jewelery district tender fiasco, city parking contract going to obviously fronted BEE company, the list goes on… trust me) he would’ve been fired ages ago.

Instead he’s probably looking forward to his 25% of annual salary bonus.
