Magagane-Malao said she was retrenched shortly after tipping off vice-president Ignatius Sehoole of claims that a senior official, corporate services boss Robert Madzonga, signed off on R12.2 million in dodgy invoices.<\/p>\n

MTN told the Sunday Times that Madzonga would \u201cargue his case in court\u201d and would not comment to the newspaper.<\/p>\n
