Disgraced former Hospital CEO has a top job in Gauteng Health Department
11 April 2024
The disgraced former CEO of Rahima Moosa Hospital has landed a top job in the Gauteng Health Department despite the Health Ombud’s damning report on her poor performance and mental stability.
Dr Nozuko Mkabayi is now the Acting Director: HAST, which covers HIV/Aids, Sexually Transmitted Infections and TB programmes, and she earns the same salary as a hospital CEO.
This is revealed by Gauteng Health MEC Nomantu Nkomo-Ralehoko in a written reply to my questions in the Gauteng Legislature.
According to the MEC, no disciplinary action has been taken against Dr Mkabayi despite the Health Ombud’s findings against her, including irregularly working from home and unauthorised days off instead of being at the hospital.
