Tintswalo Makhubele faces a Judicial Conduct Tribunal after accepting a role as the chairperson of the interim board of Prasa while still occupying a position as a judge.
JOHANNESBURG - Gauteng Judge President Dunstan Mlambo said he was disappointed when he learnt Judge Tintswalo Makhubele had accepted a position as chair of the interim board of the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa after being recommended for appointment to the bench.
There’s a dispute over when she actually took office, though, and Makhubele denies there was any overlap. He said she requested a deferment until April 2018, citing her erstwhile position as the chairperson of the Water Tribunal as the reason but that he had refused her on the basis that he did not believe this presented a conflict.
