GROUNDUP: The Lottery and the missing minstrels museum

But though Advocate Jeff Mphande of the Public Protector’s Good Governance and Integrity Unit confirmed that the complaint had been allocated to him for investigation, it apparently went nowhere.

The Public Protector failed to respond to emailed requests for information about the outcome of the investigation. But Lottery spokesman Ndivhuhu Mafela said in response to our questions about the outcome of the complaint: “Please note that the Lottery did not open any case against a beneficiary in 2014. The investigation referenced here was in cooperation with another investigation, stemming from a case opened by a member of the beneficiary organisation.”on the Cape Town Minstrel Carnival Association and the men who controlled it at the time: chairman Richard “Pot” Stemmet and CEO Kevin Momberg.

But last week Stemmet was far less forthcoming about how the Lottery funding was spent. During a brief interview at his factory last week, he initially said: “I know nothing about that funding and how it was spent. It was other people involved, it was a long time ago.”
