It was revealed this week that Motsoeneng has been given a salary hike of almost R1 million despite the Public Protector’s finding last year that he should face a disciplinary action.
Yesterday, Motsoeneng said he’s worth his salary and denied claims that taxpayer’s money is being used to pay it.
But Media Monitoring Africa’s William Bird says the public is right to questions his salary bump.
“There are court cases looming. One of the key issues that were raised in the Public Protector’s report was the exponential increase that he received less than a year ago. And now we see another significant increase.”
