Recycled leadership as Makgekgenene returns to the DCEC :: Mmegi Online

A new broom sweeps clean, but an old broom knows the corners, as the saying goes. Having served for a considerable number of years as deputy director general and even multiple acting appointments at the helm of the Directorate on Corruption and Economic Crime (DCEC), Botlhale Makgekgenene has finally been appointed to the hot seat of the corruption busting agency.

Mmegi has been reliably informed that Makgekgenene, who has been Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Defence and Security, returns after several acting appointments since the exit of her former boss Tymon Katlholo.

Her appointment is with immediate effect. After Katlholo departed the DCEC in 2009, Makgekgenene was appointed deputy director general for policy during the tenure of Rose Seretse. Considering that she worked closely with Seretse and Katlholo and acted as DG on numerous occasions, some had thought Makgekgenene would assume the hot seat at some point.
