💩!!

He must take lie detector test like all officials at FS Human Settlements Department at that time. Then we know who is clean.

Zwane probably decided it was preferable to plead total ignorance of the HousingAct & his oversight responsibility of his portfolio rather than confess to corruption, greed, theft & total neglect of his duty to the poor!

Zwane at the StateCaptureInquiry: I'm innocent; I did my best to deliver housing; I represent the poor; Any shortcomings, waste, missing millions, corruption in the Housing Project is the fault of Govt officials etc etc ....

MosebenziZwane: It's like trying to pin down jelly: It just squishes elsewhere! Poor JudgeZondo must be ready to tear his hair out, as NO ANC leader at the StateCaptureInquiry admits to ANY wrongdoing, whether there's evidence or not!

As I thought: Zwane is a ServantOfThePeople, who did nothing but fight for the poor: He knows nothing about missing millions & houses not delivered! His response to Zondo: Ask the Govt officials, THEY were responsible for whatever went wrong!

Why do we need a premier for housing if he hands everything over to his 'officials'? The buck stops with him.

But you did not write like this when they were blaming him.

They will never agree to any wrong doing. These people nje must be dealt with by the public! Ordinary citizens.

Why Our Taxes Still Employing MEC's & Deputies if these Morons Can Come here and Shift Responsibility...It's an Over Staffed Government that isn't responsible for Eish...A Bunch of Incompetent Cruel Greedy Hyena's

Lol wasn't me?

And now he throws his HOD under the bus,typical of ANC politicians.

That's typical of him, has he ever agreed to wrongdoing? A person who heads a certain department, anything wrong that happens in that department becomes that person's responsibility surely everyone knows that expect of course Zwane. He can never hide behind other anymore...

Its your department, its your budget.......so guess what its your responsibility for accountability !!!!

WATCH LIVE | Mosebenzi Zwane takes stand at state capture inquiryFormer human settlements head of department in the Free State, Mpho Mokoena, told the commission how Zwane allegedly pushed through an “illegal” advance payment scheme for building material to the tune of more than R500m. Funny that it went through Procurement legal processes he Mokoena was a custodian of as dictated by the PSA, PFMA, PPFA and the administrative system and law of the very same department he was leading. He should be declared a delinquent. Remember when we were told RET would recall the President! RET who can’t write a letter , remember dates or even know the Law or keep an appointment because they too sick! These RET are so weak!
