The minister has reportedly recommended that state funerals should be capped.

Public Works and Infrastructure Minister Patricia De Lille has instructed her officials to open fraud cases after the funeral and memorial services of struggle stalwart Winnie Madikizela-Mandela and two other ANC veterans cost taxpayers a whopping R76m, according to a report on Sunday.

In 2018 alone, the company provided services at the funerals of Madikizela-Mandela, ANC veteran and former Cabinet minister Zola Skweyiya and former chief of state protocol Billy Modise.

Minister orders criminal charges after state burials cost taxpayers millionsPatricia de Lille has instructed officials to lay fraud charges against the company that staged the funerals of Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, Zola Skweyiya, and Billy Modise, for allegedly inflating their invoices. I wonder ? but it seems like some Limitsless people would .. more than meets the eye !! She should have laid charges against those who appointed the companies. Every normal company request quotation before appointment, its nonsensical to accept high quote as a state and later cry and lay fraud charges, thats abuse of power Seems like it's becoming fashionable for politicians to fight corruption. They're at least catching with voters now
