The University of South Africa (UNISA) is being sued for R50 million by the former deputy vice-chancellor for an unjust appointment, Cape {town} Etc reports.
David Mosoma, a former deputy vice-chancellor at Unisa and current council member, says he would have earned R50 million if he had been appointed as vice-chancellor in 2010.
However, Mosoma was overlooked due to a report the university used to 'tarnish' his image. He said he was a preferred candidate but lost the position to Mandla Makhanya.
Tisana Madimetja, Mosoma's lawyer, reportedly sent a letter of demand to Unisa's current vice-chancellor, Puleng LenkaBula, on 22 November 2023.
According to News24 , Mosoma and LenkaBula are close allies within the council.
