“The Board and management team would like to thank Vee for his valued service and contribution to the Company over the past eight years and wish him every success in his new role as CEO of the NHA,” Phumelela said in a sens-announcement yesterday afternoon.

The NHA role requires attention to detail quietly getting the job done. not flash the cash mentality.
