Telkom<\/a> CEO Nombulelo Moholi<\/a> has rejected speculation that she intends resigning next month, when Telkom chairman Lazarus Zim<\/a> leaves, Business Report reported on Tuesday (25 September 2012).<\/p>\n

“There’s nothing like that. Have you ever heard a quote from me saying that? All I can give you is I’m denying the rumour,” Moholi, who became Telkom CEO last April, told the newspaper<\/p>\n

She also denied rumours that Communications Minister Dina Pule<\/a> was guilty of undue influence in Telkom’s affairs.<\/p>\n

“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” she told Business Report.<\/p>\n

Telkom’s stock dropped 13.1 percent in the last two days of last week, its worst two-day fall since May 2009.<\/p>\n

Cabinet spokeswoman Phumla Williams told the newspaper on Friday that no options for Telkom had been discussed at Cabinet’s meeting on September 19.<\/p>\n

However, the newspaper reported that on September 17, Pule’s spokesman Siya Qoza said the minister would present her recommendations at the meeting.<\/p>\n
