EX-SPTC CHAIRMAN SPILLS BEANS ON WHY HE WAS AXED

MBABANE – Former SPTC Chairman Simon Mthunzi has dropped a bombshell, detailing how Minister of Information Communications and Technology Minister Dumisani Ndlangamandla allegedly refused to facilitate the board’s audience with His Majesty King Mswati III.


This, as well as allegations that minister  Ndlangamandla wanted to influence board decisions directly are the reasons why he believes he was removed from being Swaziland Post and Telecommunications Corporation (SPTC)  board chairman.
In a tell-all interview, Mthunzi told the Times SUNDAY that the board’s mission was to explain the unbundling process of the SPTC to the head of state.


He said the fact that the board was able to make other arrangements through the help of cabinet irked the minister, who did not want them (board) to honour His Majesty’s invite which had been extended.


The former chairman said that so sensitive was the matter that even the minister appointed by cabinet to accompany them to the royal residence disappeared into thin air moments before they were to appear before His Majesty.


“This is one of the reasons that had caused the minister to unceremoniously revoke my appointment as SPTC board chairman.”
Mthunzi said after the board had successfully met with the country’s leader, the minister, in anger, told him in the presence of other board member s that he would be removed and replaced.


“He accused me of by-passing him yet he had told me that he did not want us to see the King.”
