Masondo is seen as being groomed for the position of finance minister, and has been tasked with championing the Treasury’s pro-growth reforms aimed at turning around the country’s devastated economy. The unexpectedness of the decision was compounded by the fact that Masondo had himself approached the commission almost a year ago to look into allegations that he tried to use elite crime-fighting unit the Hawks to silence a former lover.

According to a letter written by Masondo in response to the integrity commission’s decision, he said he was informed by the commission chair, George Mashamba, in about November 2019 that the body had discussed the matter and agreed that there was nothing wrong in him reporting a crime.
