Bad week

Co-operative governance & traditional affairs minister is the latest ANC bigwig implicated in high-level corruption and impropriety. He denies any wrongdoing, but court papers implicate Mkhize in kickbacks worth R4.5m for facilitating deals with the PIC when he was ANC treasurer-general. It’s alleged that he used his influence to facilitate at least three business deals involving money from the PIC. It’s a big deal, since not long ago Mkhize was being touted for the finance minister’s position.x
