JABULANI SIKHAKHANI | Eskom chair’s future uncertain after board dissent (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It will be a sad day for South Africa, one of the many this country has experienced over the past 20 years, if Mteto Nyati is not appointed to another term as chair of the Eskom board. Sad, not so much because of the reasons Business Day set out in its editorial opinion earlier this week but more because such a step would send a chilling message ― not for the first time ― that leaders of state-owned entities should not speak for the entities they head up. Nyati has spoken out about the governmen
JABULANI SIKHAKHANE | SA haunted by unresolved past as elections loom (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As South Africa moves closer to the local government elections in November it is worth revisiting political scientist Dan O’Meara’s thesis that things he raised 30 years ago would continue to haunt the country.

Read excerpt
Every weekday morning FNB employees and contractors drive up Johannesburg’s Diagonal Street, curving right into Kerk Street as they head into the Bank City precinct’s parking garage, nestled into the corner of the two streets. They do this with so much confidence, some at high speed, that if you are driving the other way you may doubt that you are doing the right thing. This behaviour is one of the many micro case studies of how societies can go the wrong way, resulting in people who are doing t
JABULANI SIKHAKHANE | PIC structure fuels integrity crisis (opens the original)
Read excerpt
To fix the Public Investment Corporation (PIC) finance minister Enoch Godongwana must come up with an antidote to the very nature of the corporation. The institution brings together two elements that make it susceptible to recurring crisis: a large pot of money under management, and money-hungry people. The building blocks of Godongwana’s antidote must include finding people of absolute integrity to make up the PIC board of directors, which may be an impossible task in the short term given the s
