The organisation had been dormant for 15 years but nevertheless was awarded R27 million by the NLC.
Payments totalling R2 million were made to Huma in late 2016 by Upbrand Properties, a company associated with the suspended NLC COO Phillemon Letwaba, just months before Huma was appointed to the NLC board. ....
