SEE: These are the top public officials who earned more than the president | GroundUp_News
Five of the 24 executives were paid more than R5 million each. Three received packages worth over R7m.
At the 111 agencies analysed by GroundUp, the average top executive was paid nearly R2.5m in 2017/18 — more than the average salary of the ministers to whom they reported. The highest-paid 3A executive identified by GroundUp was Samson Moraba, CEO of the National Housing Finance Corporation, which works on affordable housing models for low- and middle-income South Africans on behalf of the Department of Human Settlements.
Xolile George, CEO of the South African Local Government Association, and Philisiwe Mthethwa, CEO of the National Empowerment Fund, also received more than R5m apiece. Spokespersons for most of the agencies and departments named above did not provide comment by time of writing. A RAF spokesperson told GroundUp that the agency achieved 90% of its performance targets under Watson, and transformed, during his tenure, “from an institution perceived as incompetent, uncaring and wasteful into one driven by a pursuit of excellence in service delivery”.
