The beleaguered Property Practitioners Regulatory Authority has appointed yet another acting chief executive officer, who took over from Deli Nkambule on 1 February.

PPRA board member Pamela Makhubela explained that the forensic investigation had now been completed, confirming the allegations against Mohala included contraventions of pension fund legislation and rules, irregular appointments of staff, appointments of underqualified persons, flouting of procurement processes leading to irregular, fruitless and wasteful expenditure and fraud.The forensic investigation stretched from before her engagement in 2019, from 2011 to 2021.

Some of these unnamed individuals who were declared not fit and proper were appointed to critical positions in supply chain management within the PPRA. This, the board said, was concerning given the background of corruption at the authority.“Considerably some of these files involve the HR files of staff members implicated for flouting of procurement processes or for irregular appointments.

Rural Brands: Rural Brand Technologies was paid for an app to facilitate the PPRA applications and the issuing of Fidelity Fund Certificates, but the app does not work. Mohlala approved payment of R495,000.
