A member of the troubled North West Gambling Board has allegedly solicited bribes. The allegations emerged as the provincial government is yet to implement recommendations of a damning forensic report on the same organisation

The allegations of bribe solicitation have emerged as the provincial government is yet to implement recommendations of a damning forensic report on the same organisation.

Now, a gambling operating company; Goldrush Group, which has been locked in a wrangle with the gambling board following the non-renewal and later suspension of its licenses is asking for a probe into their claims that a board member had asked one of their officials for a bribe. “In June, before the suspension; an attempt was made to solicit a bribe from Goldrush in order to secure more favourable treatment for the company,” the letter to Mokgoro which is signed by Goldrush chief executive officer, Mergan Naidoo, reads.

“At this meeting Ms Seepe told Mr Thejane that if Goldrush wanted its ‘problem’ to go away…it should pay her and three other board members R100 000 each (i.e. R400 000 in total. She described this as a ‘facilitation fee’,” the letter reads.
