  • Gavin Watson: Pathologist Concludes He Was Dead Before Fatal Crash – Report the South African - 16 Sep 2019
    Gavin Watson: Pathologist concludes he was dead before fatal crash – report The South African - 16 Sep 2019 Gavin Watson: Pathologist concludes he was dead before fatal crash – report A private pathologist has dropped something resembling a bombshell this weekend. Their findings on Gavin Watson's death has dispelled a few rumours. by Tom Head 2019-09-16 07:52 in News Photo: Inside Politics / Twitter The infamous former CEO of Bosasa, Gavin Watson, lost his life in a car accident last month. His death fuelled conspiracy theories and even rumours of suicide. However, over the weekend, a private pathologist has put to bed a few of these unsubstantiated claims, suggesting that Watson was deceased before the impact. How did Gavin Watson die? As reported by The Citizen, the body didn’t show signs of “significant trauma” after the devastating smash. The well-known executive, who was facing a mountain of corruption allegations following the State Capture Inquiry, smashed a Toyota Corolla into a concrete pillar while en-route to OR Tambo Airport in Johannesburg. The ANC held a memorial service for him a week later, paying tribute to his anti-apartheid activism. Private pathologist dismisses some conspiracy theories However, his divisive legacy gave way to the nature of his death in terms of being the main talking point after this incident. Some felt that he may have been murdered, or that the scene itself was staged and Gavin Watson had faked his death in order to escape several pending inquiries. Tall tales, however, don’t hold up against scientific fact.

  • ANC Heavyweights Placed at Heart of Bosasa Operation
    Legalbrief | your legal news hub Wednesday 29 September 2021 ANC heavyweights placed at heart of Bosasa operation ANC heavyweights and state officials have been placed at the heart of Bosasa’s operation to safeguard itself from any investigation of its corrupt multi-billion rand contracts with government in the latest round of allegations placed before the Zondo Commission of Inquiry, notes Legalbrief. On a fourth day of testimony, former Bosasa executive Angelo Agrizzi laid bare how the controversial facilities company lined the pockets of Ministers, former and current ANC MPs, and officials working in various departments. The corruption also went to the core of Parliament, according to Agrizzi, who alleged long-standing ANC MP Vincent Smith, and other MPs, were paid up to R100 000 a month to protect Bosasa. Heading the list of ANC heavyweights that Bosasa, now trading as African Global Operations, had on its payroll was Environmental Affairs Minister Nomvula Mokonyane. According to a Business Day report, the Minister insisted that the firm foot the bill for ANC rallies, birthday celebrations, funeral services and even a rental car for her daughter. Agrizzi said that Bosasa had paid for at least a dozen ANC events, including the party’s Siyanqoba rallies, which are held before elections. Apart from favours for the party, Agrizzi also described how he had been given a list of Christmas groceries to buy for Mokonyane every year since 2002. The company also paid for repairs to her Roodepoort home. Mokonyane has denied the allegations. Mokonyane allegedly received cash bribes of R50 000 over the course of several years – at times delivered to her at her official residence as the Premier of Gauteng, says a Daily Maverick report.

  • Zuma, Jiba Et Al Linked to Bosasa
    Legalbrief | your legal news hub Friday 24 September 2021 Zuma, Jiba et al linked to Bosasa Former President Jacob Zuma and top NPA officials were on Bosasa’s payroll, according to testimony expected to be delivered to the Zondo Commission of Inquiry into State Capture this week by the company’s former chief operating officer, Angelo Agrizzi. The Sunday Times notes insiders who have seen Agrizzi’s full affidavit, say it contains details of how company CEO Gavin Watson made payments to Zuma, suspended deputy NDPP Nomgcobo Jiba and Special Director of Public Prosecutions Lawrence Mrwebi in return for their protection from prosecution in connection with dodgy state contracts. Agrizzi is going to claim Zuma received a R300 000 monthly payment, and Bosasa paid Jiba and Mrwebi R100 000 and R10 000 a month respectively. Jiba, however, denied stalling the Bosasa case, saying she tried to fast-track it. This was echoed by Mrwebi, who said he has approached the commission to refute Agrizzi's version. Jiba said she did not receive a cent from Bosasa or anyone linked to it. ‘I can subject myself to the commission now because it's so untrue,’ Jiba is quoted as saying. She was ready to be cross-examined on the matter. ‘He said I received R100 000 a month since 2011. That's over R10m. If I got that money, why did I subject myself to all of this at the NPA. I would have resigned.’ Jiba said she wants the police to get to the bottom of who took money from Bosasa in her name.

  • The Private Funding of Political Parties: What Do We Know?
    THE PRIVATE FUNDING OF POLITICAL PARTIES: WHAT DO WE KNOW? This report, compiled by My Vote Counts (MVC), is a compilation of information on the private funding of political parties through donations and/or other financial transfers. The negative impact of the unregulated private funding of political parties in South Africa, stretches back to the period prior to the inception of democracy in 1994. However, this document serves as an informative reminder of donations allocated to current political parties contesting the 2019 general elections, in the absence of an effective party funding transparency disclosure regime for voters to make an informed vote. In the lead up to any elections, political parties are surely receiving a spike in private donations to fund their campaigns. Without this information being made public, political parties have been able to operate without proper scrutiny and conceal key information from the very people they depend on for votes. The following information is already available in the public domain, but not all the sources referenced are available online or compiled collectively as they are here. The fact that this information is restricted to five political parties, and in light of the vulnerability our political system has faced in the absence of party private funding transparency regulations, there is surely a huge gap in publicly available information on the various private donations allocated to political parties. This report cannot claim to have all the publicly available information on political parties private funding, but has included the most accessible sources. This report provides the following information: ● Political parties: The report mainly lists donations allocated to the African National Congress, the Democratic Alliance, the Economic Freedom Fighters, the Inkatha Freedom Party and the United Democratic Movement.

  • Bosasa at Nomvula Mokonyane's Beck and Call, Said Agrizzi From
    21 January 2019 Zondo Commission: Bosasa at Nomvula Mokonyane’s beck and call, said Agrizzi From designing the cake for former president Jacob Zuma’s 72nd birthday party five years ago, to supervising the renovations at the Roodepoort home of Minister of Environmental Affairs Nomvula Mokonyane, Angelo Agrizzi was a very busy man. Agrizzi resumed his testimony at the commission of inquiry into state capture in Johannesburg on Monday. The proceedings started two hours later than usual, at noon, as Agrizzi had to attend to a prior engagement. Before the start, commission chair and deputy chief justice Raymond Zondo announced that proceedings on the day and on Tuesday would go longer by an hour, to 5pm, to make up for the two hours missed on Monday morning. Normal starting time is 10am. Bosasa, now African Global Operations, was at the beck and call of Mokonyane for the most part, said Agrizzi, even paying for rented cars for as long as three months at a time for her daughter, during her visits from her studies in China. Agrizzi was the company’s CFO until the end of 2016, when he resigned. Bosasa has over the years earned a lot of money through lucrative contracts with government. The relationship between Mokonyane and the company, he said, goes back a long way. Between himself and CEO Gavin Watson they referred to the minister as the “energizer bunny” because of her ability to get things done for them. Agrizzi would later call on Watson to consider cutting ties with her, however, when Bosasa stopped getting their return on investment.

  • Private Funding of Political Parties: What We Know?
    2021 PRIVATE FUNDING OF POLITICAL PARTIES: WHAT WE KNOW (VERSION 2) PRIVATE FUNDING OF POLITICAL PARTIES: WHAT WE KNOW (VERSION 2) This updated report, titled “Private Funding of Political Parties: What We Know?” serves as a register of known donations, or reported donations from private sources to South African political parties and politicians. The following information is already available in the public domain, but not all the sources referenced are available online or are compiled collectively as is here. The negative impact of the unregulated private funding of politics in South Africa stretches back to the period prior to the inception of democracy in 1994 and continues today. While the private funding of politics is not always necessarily problematic or linked to corruption, when it is done in secrecy it can create suspicion and the only way to counter this is through transparency and regulation. In the absence of any disclosure of political parties’ private funding information, there is a huge gap in publicly available information on the various private donations allocated to political parties. This report cannot claim to have all the publicly available information on political parties’ private funding, but will regularly be updated as we uncover more information. The Political Party Funding Act, set to be operational by 1 April 2021, and the Promotion of Access to Information Amendment Act, will for the first time in South Africa’s history compel political parties to make disclosures of their private funding. We will then have access to this crucial information that can be used to vote and make political choices from a more informed position, to hold political parties and politicians to account, and serve as a tool to stop and uncover corruption.
