PIC chair Masondo defends board member Thabi Nkosi
State-owned asset management firm Public Investment Corporation (PIC) chairperson Dr David Masondo says PIC board member Thabi Nkosi serves on the board because of her qualifications, experience and demonstrated record of leadership.
Masondo said the PIC board has “noted with concern recent defamatory attacks directed at Nkosi, including offensive claims regarding her personal life and the basis of her appointment.
“The misogynistic allegations seek to diminish her achievements by attributing her achievements to personal relationships rather than merit,” he wrote in a media statement.
He states that Nkosi enjoys the full confidence and support of the PIC board, which rejects the allegations and stands behind her professionalism and contribution to the work of the PIC.
“The sexist and misogynistic attacks are unfair and also undermine broader efforts to ensure that capable women lead and serve without being subjected to sexist and degrading speculation,” said Masondo.
