The Minister in the Presidency for Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities, Sindisiwe Chikunga, has rejected allegations that she helped family members get jobs in the public service. Her deputy Steve Letsike is also facing similar allegations. In a statement, Chikunga called the reports false and misleading, saying all public service appointments follow a legal recruitment process managed by accounting officers. She stressed that executive authorities do not appoint staff outside the law and that appointments are made on merit and transparency. We spoke to  Public Service Commission (PSC) Commissioner, Advocate Neo Sephoti. The Commission is investigating the allegations levelled against the Ministers.
