Probe TWBA Hunt Lascaris tender and Zille s involvement

CORRUPTION? Dishonesty, bribery, sleaze, fraud and vice pop up.

When the involvement of political advisers to Helen Zille in the bid committee for the R70m TWBA Hunt Lascaris tender hit the headlines, Zille denied knowledge of their involvement and offered to resign should the tender be found to be questionable.

Public Protector Thuli Madonsela investigated and found they in fact were formal members of the bid committee.

Madonsela also found that Zille had played a role in bring- ing the figure down to R70m.

What else is Zille not telling us about the controversial tender?

We demand a forensic investigation and it must serve as the final arbiter on this matter. I M AN ARDENT supporter of Bafana despite having to endure derision at cocktail parties whenever I pitch with a Bafana jersey on, all this because Bafana have become soccer s whipping boys in

’ Africa.

With all the resources at Bafana s disposal, Mosimane s

’ ’ shameful performance really angers most South Africans. Safa s incompetence is also

’ to blame for giving Mosimane easy money. A performance-based contract would long have sealed Mosimane s

’ exit from the team after his spectacular failures.

Gordon Igesund is the people s choice to lead Bafana to

’ Brazil, he deserves the job.
