These documents were proven to be fake and lead to disciplinary proceedings against Kalawe. In May 2014 Myeni accused Kalawe of serious governance breaches. An accusation Kalawe disputed prompting Gigaba to state his “full confidence” in Kalawe following Gigaba’s call for the state-owned airline to fix it’s long-troubled management problems.

Within a week of Gigaba’s statement, he was shuffled by president Zuma to the Department of Home Affairs. Gigaba was replaced by Lynne Brown as Minister for Public Enterprises. Upon Zuma’s request, Brown replaced Myeni’s critics at the airline and keeping Myeni in her position whilst instructing Myeni to reinstate Kalawe as chief executive.
