BNP Capital was awarded an alleged irregular tender by South African Airways (SAA) to source a R15 billion debt consolidation loan. 

Yesterday the commission heard from former SAA CEO Siza Mzimela – who told the commission she was surprised when Dudu Myeni was appointed as board chair at SAA as she had the worst attendance record as one of the directors at SAA. 

Mzimela told the commission she eventually resigned due to frustrations regarding irregularities at the organisation and lack of support from her seniors. 

She said the board chair and the executive chair clearly had motives to interfere with procurement processes at SAA.
