Shivambu denies he owns plush rural house
Mystery of multi-storey mansion linked to Floyd
EFF deputy leader Floyd Shivambu has denied claims that he owns a multi-storey mansion in a rural area.
After a social media user said it belonged to him, Shivambu asked for the keys of the property.
“So where is the house and when are you giving me the keys now that you gave me a house?” asked Shivambu.
In September‚ Shivambu denied that he had bought a Range Rover Sport with funds allegedly looted from the VBS Mutual Bank.
The Mail & Guardian reported that Shivambu was under scrutiny after a report that the Hawks were investigating the R1.1m car he allegedly paid cash for in January last year.
According to the publication‚ the vehicle was registered in Shivambu’s name before being transferred to Musa Shivambu‚ his cousin‚ in December last year.
Last month‚ the DA said in a statement that it would be reporting Shivambu to parliament’s ethics committee after a report alleging he had used funds allegedly looted from VBS Mutual Bank to pay for his wedding.
The report alleged that Shivambu spent more than half-a-million rand on his April 2017 nuptials‚ allegedly using VBS Mutual Bank money through a company called Grand Azania.
The company allegedly received R6.16m from VBS Mutual Bank and R8.74m from other sources.
Shivambu has denied any involvement with the company.
