ActionSA Launches Internal Probe Amid Tender Rigging Allegations
The podcast episode delves into ActionSAs internal investigation following their involvement in the Madlanga commission inquiry into alleged tender rigging in Tshwane. WhatsApp messages suggest officials attempted to favor certain companies for a security contract. The messages, traced to Sergeant Fannie Nkosis phone, involved Tshwanes chief financial officer, Gareth Mnisi, and former metro police deputy chief Umashi Dlamini. They discussed recommendations for companies to guard city infrastructure over a three-year deal. Nkosi pushed two firms, including one linked to his brother, while Dlamini named seven others linked to the EFF and urged checking with its leader, Julius Malema. Mnisi then mentioned getting five company picks from both the EFF and ActionSA, headed by Herman Mashaba. Party spokesperson Matthew George expressed serious concern over the claims. ActionSA stressed its zero-tolerance stance on corruption and promised a thorough review to verify if any members were involved. If wrongdoing is found, those responsible will face the harshest consequences.
