Petrus Mazibuko was a signatory to an account that allegedly received unauthorised payments from two Eskom suppliers

Suspended Eskom coal operations senior manager Petrus Mazibuko told a Special Tribunal hearing on Thursday he did not know where R11m in a bank account, to which he is a signatory, came from.

In May, the Gauteng high court in Johannesburg granted an order to seize assets worth R1.4bn belonging to former Eskom executives accused of corruption in the construction of the Kusile Power Station. “Our case is very simple,” said Platt. “It’s non-disclosure, that’s it. The first respondent [Mazibuko] has an obligation in law to disclose … that he is a director [of Thephunokhetja Projects] and a signatory [to the FNB account]. He has admitted that he has not disclosed [that information to Eskom].”
