These suspensions will be followed by an internal disciplinary process.
Airports Company South Africa (ACSA) confirmed on Thursday afternoon that it has suspended, with immediate effect, two senior managers at the OR Tambo International Airport.
They are the general manager of the airport, Bongiwe Pityi-Vokwana, and the Assistant General Manager: Airport Operations Kris Reddy.
ACSA CEO Mpumi Mpofu informed employees about the suspensions in a letter, saying it came about because of company and law enforcement agencies investigations into allegations of supply chain management irregularities and transgressions of the Public Finance Management Act. These suspensions will be followed by an internal disciplinary process, which will be expedited to allow the employees and the company to reach a speedy and fair conclusion on the matter, writes Mpofu.

Former Gauteng premier Mbhazima Shilowa has thrown shade at Umkhonto we Sizwe Military Veterans Association (MKMVA) members after they vowed to “protect” former president Jacob Zuma from arrest by setting up camp outside his Nkandla homestead.
On Tuesday, Shilowa weighed in on a Lotus FM report about the military veterans plan to camp outside Zuma s homestead “until further notice”.
Shilowa said the military veterans were going nowhere until the food runs out.
