The Supreme Court of Appeal has dismissed an application by Khayizeni Maswanganyi to keep a position that was awarded under questionable circumstances in 2020.
A Limpopo traditional leader has lost his appeal to remain on the throne, which Premier Stanley Mathabatha gave to him despite a pending court application.
Despite being a central figure in destabilising and fuelling tensions among warring traditional leaders, Limpopo premier Stanley Mathabatha told the chiefs to resolve their disputes themselves.
Member of Parliament Joseph Maswanganyi’s interest in the appointment of senior traditional leaders, some of whom have been found to be bogus, in Limpopo’s Giyani area appears to have been motivated by business.
