It appears the man who finally approved the clearance of the Guptas' Waterkloof flight may have done so to land a government job

“Because I'm working with clearances so there is a favour I am doing for him right now ... of an Indian aircraft that is coming on the 29th‚" Ntshisi is heard saying in the recordings."If you remember correctly in our discussion [with Sarah]‚ I also involved the name of Koloane.

Asked if he he saw his role in approving the flight as a means to gain favour with Koloane for the job‚ he said:"That is not so." "When I was speaking to Sarah and asking her to speak with that person on my behalf‚ that specific person when he or she was going to speak with Koloane mentioning the name Thabo Ntshisi‚ Mr Koloane would simply remember who that person is.

It was me: Zuma ‘fall guy’ admits he’s to blame for Gupta landingStateCaptureInquiry Ex-state protocol head Bruce Koloane has admitted he dropped names, including Zuma's, to get Guptas their landing clearance. This is a diversion to take a fall for Zuma🙈🙈🙈.. Clearly doesn't need a rocket scientist 😂.. Thats Zuma's corner stone in his defense when appearing in Zondo commission 🙈🙈.. He will play victim as usual and pretend as if all implications they were name dropping his name😂. As old as he is he desides to lie, hes an embarrassment to all close to him!
