Tenders, tycoons, and threats β€” Suleiman Carrim describes deals with β€˜Cat’ Matlala, Morgan Maumela ANC-linked businessman Suleiman Carrim not only had links with alleged organised crime figure Vusimuzi β€˜Cat’ Matlala and ANC fixer Brown Mogotsi, but was also connected to tender tycoon Hangwani Maume...

Not sure why so many media houses are describing Carrim as a "businessman".

He's ANC royalty in the North West.

From the cheap seats he looks like your typical ANC tenderpreneur likely involved neck deep in corrupt activities.

β€˜Project Gnome’: How security police forged memorandum that tricked ANC and changed history A forged memorandum that misled the ANC and that forms part of evidence to the Khampepe inquiry into delayed Truth and Reconciliation Commission prosecutions, reveals a dark chapter in South Africa’s ...

The only form of justice that the families of victims of Apartheid crimes are going to receive is knowing exactly why there was no justice.

Yet another deep stain on the reputations of Mbeki, Zuma, and the ANC.

Oh dear.

All that time and effort spent by Zille since 2019 to court the Afrikaner right-wing conservative vote.

Just in case you thought North Korea's Dear Leader dream was theirs alone, here's the eThekwini ANC's best shot at it (well 50% of it, the other R11 millions worth is at the MM stadium).

OR Tambo in all his splendid pomp - and not a tourist to be seen visiting this expensive attraction.

The Machiavellian shadow: Former top prosecutor testifies how Thabo Mbeki thwarted post-TRC justice In a searing indictment of South Africa’s post-apartheid leadership, top prosecutor Anton Ackermann detailed a systematic, state-sanctioned campaign to bury Truth and Reconciliation Commission cases, ...

While South Africa is watching the Madlanga Commission and the Parliamentary Select Committee soap opera, the Khampepe Commission is dealing a fatal blow to the legacy of Thabo Mbeki.

All his conspiracy theory character flaws leading to this gross injustice.

What a fatal chain of events these ANC leaders created.

It's a straight line from here to where the NPA is today.

Never mind the gross injustice of justice denied to the victims of Apartheid, the ANC's own members and constituents.

WTF: β€œperverse glee with which the educated West greeted the butchery of Jews” – total gaslighting.
