Former Eskom CEO Brian Molefe will appeal a ruling that forced him to pay back nearly R10 million in pension benefits he received when he left the power utility.
The Pretoria High Court, on 4 July 2022, ruled that Molefe had to pay R9 985 540, plus interest, to the Eskom Pension and Provident Fund (EPPF) within 10 days.
The former Eskom chief executive, however, wants to appeal the ruling.
EPPF chief executive, Shafeeq Abrahams, criticised Molefe, accusing him of Stalingrad tactics.
“The [fund] believes there are no merits to Mr Molefe’s appeal, and it is an attempt to delay the implementation of the court order,” Abrahams told Fin24 on Wednesday.
