, claiming that he had damaging information about her.
There were claims of extortion in that story, where it is alleged that there were text messages from Mafoko to Bogopane-Zulu. The messages appeared to have been between Mafoko and a certain William du Toit, with the latter demanding money from Mafoko and threatening to release the recording of the conversation. The deputy minister saw the messages as an attempt to blackmail her by Mafoko, who denied this.
“He dropped the call the other day when I told him to hold so I could connect the Sowetan editor to our call because he claimed to be working for the newspaper,” Bogopane-Zulu said.During the call, the man on the other side of the line repeatedly threatened that he was going to sell the information he claimed to have on the deputy minister, and spoke less about him being a journalist. This was after having been heard in a call recording from earlier saying he was “going to publish story”.
This is abuse and i suspect that psycho who turned against the same minister who tried to help him... Very toxic that guy
For sake we hope this was just a chancer we're tired of compromised public servants
