RTMCMoneyweb reports that the number of senior managers at the Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC) who have been suspended because of allegations made by whistleblowers has increased to four.

The RTMC has appointed KPMG to conduct a forensic investigation into the whistleblower allegations. In a letter dated simply “September 2025”, apparently sent to RTMC employees by interim RTMC CEO Refilwe Mongale, it is advised that “after careful consideration, and to ensure a fair process, three senior managers have been placed on precautionary suspension with immediate effect from Monday, 22 September 2025, until further notice.” RTMC spokesperson Simon Zwane confirmed that Nompumelelo Ramutle, executive manager of corporate services, Lehasa Mazibuko, general manager of supply chain management, and Liana Moolman, chief financial officer, had been suspended. Three acting appointments have been made with immediate effect.

The first precautionary suspension by the RTMC was of CEO Advocate Makhosini Msibi, effective from 1 July. Msibi has launched a high court application to review and set aside his suspension. The parties are waiting for the court to allocate a date for the hearing of this application. The serious allegations made by a whistleblower in several emails sent to various entities relate to financial misconduct, irregular procurement, abuse of authority, and governance failures under the leadership of Msibi.
