Eastern Cape MEC and ANC provincial treasurer Babalo Madikizela has challenged public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane’s damning report on Winnie Madikizela-Mandela R1.1m memorial service funds in which he has been implicated.
On April 27 2019, a man walked into the Mbizana police station in the Eastern Cape and signed an affidavit stating that he had been part of a corruption ring that siphoned money from the local municipality.
Eastern Cape premier Oscar Mabuyane suspects that suspended ANC secretary-general Ace Magashule may be behind a "fishing expedition" by the Hawks against him.
