Nersa says chairperson does not have conflict of interests

The National Energy Regulator of South Africa (Nersa) says chairperson Thembani Bukula is not conflicted, as he had resigned from his position as nonexecutive director of JSE-listed infrastructure special purpose acquisition company Mahube Infrastructure upon his appointment as Nersa chairperson. “The comments made on social media platforms alleging that Bukula has a conflict of interest are incorrect and misleading,” the regulator states.
