Army boss not 'defying' Motshekga
The Citizen
|August 26, 2025
General Rudzani Maphwanya is not challenging the authority of Minister of Defence and Military Veterans Angie Motshekga, the SA National Defence Force (SANDF) said.
The general has reportedly defied the minister's instruction to reinstate an Air Force colonel who received a favourable ruling from the military ombud.
The SANDF responded to the claims on Sunday, stating the allegations were incorrect and misleading.
Colonel Eugene Motati was dismissed in 2019, following sexual harassment accusations.
The military ombud in March ruled his dismissal was unlawful, stating the allegations against Motati were untested.
Motshekga has reportedly ordered Maphwanya to reinstate the colonel, with the SANDF denying claims the army chief is refusing.
