Finance minister Enoch Godongwana has won the first part of his civil claim against controversial businessman Mthunzi Mdwaba over allegations that the former solicited a R500m bribe in return for a R5bn tender.
Labour minister Thulas Nxesi says he has taken a decision to have the R5bn agreement concluded between the Unemployment Insurance Fund (UIF) and CEO of Thuja Capital Fund Mthunzi Mdwaba be set aside.
It has become standard practice for prominent South Africans suspected of wrongdoing to resort to diversionary tactics for example, recent attacks on the judiciary, accusations about “white monopoly capital” and, more recently, the I-have-been-targeted-because-I-am-fighting-corruption trope, writes Sabelo Skiti.
