CAPE TOWN– The cabinet has confirmed Dondo Mogajane as permanent director general at national treasury, it said on Thursday.
Lungisa Fuzile resigned as the department’s highest official shortly after his political head, Pravin Gordhan, was removed as finance minister.
Mogajane has worked for the department since 1999 and was most recently the deputy director-general responsible for public finance.
The appointment was made in record time as Finance Minister Malusi Gigaba has said it was important to provide continuity and certainty in the institution.
