The University of Cape Town (UCT) council has received a new complaint against embattled vice-chancellor Professor Mamokgethi Phakeng from suspended executive director for communication and marketing Gerda Kruger.
Kruger has asked the council for help in a “desperate attempt to seek an internal resolution to an egregious failure of the university leadership to adhere to university policies”. The matter was on the agenda for a council meeting which was scheduled for Thursday, but has since been postponed to January.
Kruger was charged with producing a UCT publication, The End of Term at UCT, without obtaining authorisation or informing Phakeng about it. Without permission, Kruger allegedly published a tribute under Phakeng’s name.
