Gabriel Maluleke was fired last week for appointing eight companies to build roads when the department had no budget. He went over the budget by R1.3 billion.
The agency said this caused it to incur irregular, fruitless and wasteful expenditure amounting to R6.9 billion.
Limpopo has a total of 21000 road networks. About 7000 of them are either paved or tarred, while 13 000 are gravel.
The termination of the employment of Maluleke follows his suspension on 30 August after facing charges related to dishonesty, financial misconduct, negligence and the contravention of some certain sections of the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA).
