Minister of Communications, Dina Pule<\/a>, has on Monday (26 November) met with the board members\u00a0of Telkom<\/a> “to listen to their plans and update them about government’s strategic priorities”.<\/p>\n

According to a a statement by the DoC<\/a>, the meeting also served to strengthen the ties between government and the\u00a0board of Telkom.<\/p>\n

Relations between the two had soured in recent months, which many claim ultimately led to the resignation of \u00a0CEO\u00a0Nombulelo Moholi<\/a>, while four additional board members have also stepped down from the group, including former chairman,\u00a0Lazarus Zim<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Today’s engagement went very well. I’m confident that the board of Telkom\u00a0will help the state achieve its developmental goals, while ensuring that Telkom\u00a0remains commercially sustainable,” Pule said.<\/p>\n

Minister Pule’s meeting with Telkom forms part of the regular series of meetings\u00a0that she holds with the various stakeholders of the Department, the DoC said.<\/p>\n
