The managers who include directors and superintendents will formally present their grievances in the second hearing in two weeks, presided over by Werksman's Attorneys' lawyer Sandile July.

JOHANNESBURG – The City of Johannesburg will on Friday hear claims that Johannesburg Metro Police chief David Tembe allegedly incited junior officers to revolt against senior officers, and that the relationship between the chief and senior managers have completely broken down.

In February, Tembe suspended two directors, Legolonko Lekota and Sipho Dlepu, alleging that they had organised a manager's meeting to undermine his authority, cause disharmony and unrest, but the senior managers said that Tembe was the one inciting unrest. A week later they remain in limbo, but their colleagues will allege in Friday's hearing that Tembe has disregarded council approved structures and chains of command, seconded his favourite staff to his office without following human resource procedures, and terrorised senior managers.

JMPD spokesperson Wayne Minnaar says: “That’s the policy issues, so, unfortunately, you're going to have to get a comment from the city manager’s office or from the mayor's office."
