The EFF has questioned the interview process for a new South African Revenue Service boss, calling it “nepotistic” and “corrupt”.
He said Kieswetter was earlier unlawfully appointed by Manuel as deputy Sars commissioner during this stint as finance minister.
“The EFF is profusely opposed to the imposition of a secretly assessed candidate by conflicted individuals, and we will do everything in our power to stop and reverse the appointment of Kieswetter as Sars commissioner,” he said.“The EFF is particularly concerned about Sars because our election manifesto states that part of our immediate plans when we take over government will be capacitation of Sars so that it can maximally collect revenue,” he said.
He said his party wants a Sars that will fight against “illicit financial flows, base erosion and profit shifting”. “A secretly chosen Sars commissioner with clear connection to the white capitalist establishment will not maximally collect taxes,” he said.
