Zikalala was reacting to an audio clip which is circulating widely on social media. In this recorded conversation of two males – one purportedly to be an investigator who is working with the Hawks – Zikalala’s name is mentioned. The purported investigator of a forensic company alleges to have telephoned Zikalala requesting a meeting with him.

Gumede stands accused of playing a “major role” in the defrauding of ratepayers to the tune of R208 million. “We knew about this a long time ago … we were waiting for the elections. She was supposed to be arrested last week but people were going to say this is all a political game, when we are not, so we decided to let her be,” the caller says

I didn't know about Durban mayor's arrest, claims KZN premier-electKwaZulu-Natal premier-elect Sihle Zikalala has distanced himself from an audio clip which purports that he knew about the arrest of eThekwini mayor Zandile Gumede before it happened. Why do I get a sense that thus audio was staged to create the 'Zuma type' tape saga? Dicussing timing of arrest etc, sounds familiar.
