Mkhwebane orders North West municipality to reinstate whistleblower
RUSTENBURG - Public protector Advocate Busisiwe Mkhwebane has ordered Matlosana Local Municipality in North West to reinstate a whistleblower and to put in place a policy to protect whistleblowers.
Mkhwebane instituted an investigation after Seero alleged that the former acting municipal manager, Sipho Mabuda, improperly suspended him following Seero's submission of a protected disclosure to the municipal council. Regulation 36 allows for money to be released in cases of emergency, which means normal processes don't have to be adhered to as time is considered limited .
Following her investigation, the public protector found that Seero's suspension was unreasonable, unfair and could justifiably be seen as an exercise by Mabuda to remove Seero, who had accused Mabuda of being involved in the corrupt activities.
