Using her ministry’s travel allowance, she organised trips to facilitate the wedding plans of her niece and a clerk in her officeocial development deputy minister Hendrietta Bogopane-Zulu offered to take a would-be in-law employed in her office on four international trips so that he could save up money to pay lobolo for her niece.
The recording has surfaced as allegations of extortion have emerged following Mafoko’s conviction and sentence on rape charges in 2018.In the recording, Bogopane-Zulu can be heard saying she wants to assist Mafoko to conclude the traditional aspects of the wedding. “You already have R10 000. You are going to New York … So, all in all, you will have plus-minus R40 000 to R50 000 by the end of April, and that is not your salary.
“So, I did not misuse any public funds; neither did I advise or motivate for anyone to get more than what the public service prescribes because that is a directive from the public service. Four trips were promised in the recording, but three actually materialised. Two of them happened in 2016, and one in 2018.
However, in the middle of the lobolo negotiations, Mafoko was charged with rape in 2016. He continued to work while out on bail.
She does not need to stress. Those that stole more are still regarded as 'leaders'
Smalanyanna skeleton
And the crime continues and continue...even under CR umbrella
If Mothambi did then why can't she did it?
A very funny story to read.
Look at your trash... CyrilRamaphosa
Comrades are competing on who will have more smaller nyana skeletons in their closet. Ramaphosa he doesn't know what to say now. Deputies are doing nothing therefore they rather keep themselves busy with state resources.
Where are you Mr President CyrilRamaphosa ? The corruption and theft continues with you continuing to do nothing!! Your interaction is now looking more and more like complicity!!!
Is there no end to this corruption ?
Nice!!! She is just hungry.... do not be so tough on this gentle woman
Okay, this is a funny story to read 😅 Maybe Mafoko recorded the convo to hold the dep minister accountable to her promise, had she not delivered. Ai 💀
It never ends. Seems its a culture
Sad
marinavanzyl What did we expect here? In a country with over 70 ministers, there will be a truckload of them who are so idle they will find time to divert state money into paying Lobolo. What a joke!
Lekker ANC cadre. True to the mould
Yet another argument for doing away with 'deputies' in government
This woman has been involved in corruption for too long-her husband is one of her staff members-a clear case of nepotism! She has always got away with corruption because of her disability!
Well done comrade
