Inquiry hears Nkosi lacked mandate to intervene in procurement matter


The Madlanga Commission has heard that Sergeant Fannie Nkosi had no authority to interfere with procurement-related matters in the Tshwane Metro Police Department.

This is contained in the department’s chief Yolande Faro‘s testimony before the commission in Pretoria.

Nkosi, who spent the Easter long weekend behind bars was believed to be a middleman between top officials involved in tender procurement processes in the City of Tshwane.

Faro says this is despite him not being an employee of the municipality.

“He has no authority. He had no permission. I was not aware that he’s busy interfering. I don’t know Sergeant Nkosi. I never made contact with him. The first time I saw Sergeant Nkosi, he was on the Madlanga Commission. So I want to state it categorically, he had no authority to interfere in any TMPD procurement-related matters.”
