NEW CIO GIVEN KEYS TO THE KINGDOM: Can Galeboe Mogotsi REALLY protect our students’ data? [Photograph by Strike a Pose]
In a SHOCKING move that could put THOUSANDS of students at risk, the Central University of Technology (CUT) has HIRED ex-government and defence insider Galeboe Mogotsi as its new data overlord—er, Chief Information Officer. Critics are demanding to know: WHY is a man whose career is DEEPLY ENTANGLED with state security apparatus now in charge of a university’s most sensitive digital frontiers?
University officials call this a “defining moment,” but insiders are whispering about a DANGEROUS GAMBLE. Mogotsi, who last served at Wits University and, alarmingly, the weapons-procurement agency Armscor, is now the sole gatekeeper of academic records, financial data, and private research at CUT. This isn’t just a hire; it’s a PARADIGM SHIFT towards surveillance-ready campus infrastructure.
His mandate to “drive digital transformation” and “enhance cyber resilience” is a thin veil for what’s REALLY happening: the SYSTEMATIC CONSOLIDATION of digital control. With a background spanning the Government Communication Information System (GCIS) and cyber security “innovation” for arms dealers, Mogotsi represents the BLURRING LINE between public education and the surveillance state. Is our next generation of minds being quietly placed under a digital microscope?
This appointment exposes the terrifying truth that our universities are no longer ivory towers, but data goldmines being handed to those with the most questionable connections. Your child’s future is now just another node in a network managed by shadowy ex-security operatives. Is THIS the digital future we consented to?
