While singer Yvonne Chaka Chaka`s appointment as a CEO in the IT industry may seem inappropriate, NRG Gestetner has defended its move to hire the “Princess of Africa” to head up Gestetner Tshwane.

The appointment came as a result of a R9-million BEE deal between Gestetner and Chaka Chaka Investments. The partners have invested jointly in Gestetner Tshwane, with Chaka Chaka Investments holding the major share.
