An investigation will begin regarding the serious allegations linking the chief executive officer of the KwaZulu-Natal Department of Education, Mr. Muzi Mahlambi, with the sale of teacher positions.
This was revealed in a statement sent by the Head of Education, Mr. Nathi Ngcobo, confirming that an investigation will begin regarding this matter.
The start of this scandal comes after a video was circulated on social media where Mahlambi was seen having a bad argument with his wife, Mrs. Busisiwe Mahlambi, who is also the head of the Department of Education in Mlaza.
In this statement, it appears that the Department has seen the video and is very aware of the very serious allegations that appear in it regarding the sale of teacher posts in an inappropriate manner. Allegations were made by his wife, who also reveals that she sleeps with other people who are hired by bribery.
This statement says that the Department of Education in KwaZulu-Natal is determined to deal with these allegations and considers it a very serious matter.
We continue to say that although these allegations have not been confirmed, the Department will want you to collect all the necessary evidence to find the core of this matter and concrete evidence.
According to the statement, the head of this department has issued a decision to start a full investigation regarding this matter concerning the serious allegations of the sale of teacher positions.
We say that the investigation will be conducted properly without fear and haste and all the necessary evidence will be brought closer.
We continue to say that the continuation of this investigation must be respected and ensured that it is done properly without being disturbed.
If we continue we say that the head wants to assure all the agencies that work with them that the Department is adamant that everything is done in the right way and the people of KwaZulu-Natal must know that.
We say that the priority is to ensure that this Department is managed properly at all times.
After the completion of the investigation, the statement says that the Department will take appropriate measures depending on the outcome.
We also urge anyone who has concrete evidence regarding these allegations not to be complacent, rather to come closer so that their evidence may not be used.
We conclude that this Department is still working with integrity, reliability and ensuring that when working, all appropriate procedures are followed.
