Dive into the heart of South Africa's latest news with this explosive documentary, uncovering the truth behind the tragic death of Ekurhuleni's Chief Auditor, Mpho Mafole. This isn't just breaking news; it's a deep dive into the corruption that cost a man his life.
Mpho Mafole, a dedicated husband, father, and public servant, uncovered a staggering R1.8 billion rand scandal within a mobile toilet tender. His meticulous investigation, detailed in a secret report submitted just days before his assassination, exposed alleged illicit dealings and questionable practices within Ekurhuleni's local government.
Join us as we dissect Mafole's findings, revealing how a seemingly innocuous contract became a deadly battleground. We explore the roles of key figures like Kagiso Lerutla (municipality's group chief financial officer), Phillip Rakgwale (internal audit head), and Kwasi Ababio (acting head of supply chain management) and their involvement in the events leading up to Mafole's demise.
Our investigation uncovers the work of a team of auditors, including Masivuye Bless, Kagiso Motsi, Mack Moshokwa, and Itumeleng Mamatela, who worked tirelessly to expose the truth. We examine the findings of their probity audit, requested by Kagiso Lerutla, and the material discrepancies they uncovered, including the unfair disqualification of companies like Mzingelwa Mamepe Group, Sjmmdlalose (Pty), Boitumelo Maduna Enterprises, and Molaba Investment Corporation.
We also delve into the role of the bid pre-evaluation committee and the questions surrounding its legitimacy. Explore the potential cover-up and the stark contrast between Mafole's findings and the memorandum sent by Phillip Rakgwale to Lerutla and Ababio.
Learn about the efforts of IRS Forensic Investigations, led by Chad Thomas, in supporting Mafole's family and pursuing justice. Discover the identikit of wanted individual Nqobile Ngcobo and the challenges faced in navigating the justice system.
This documentary sheds light on the common tactics used in tender manipulation, the warnings ignored from as far back as 2019, and the broader implications for whistleblower safety in South Africa. Hear the voices of political figures like ActionSA's Ekurhuleni mayoral candidate Xolani Khumalo, who are demanding accountability and transparency.
We also present the response from the municipality's acting spokesperson, Ramatolo Tlotleng, and the ongoing efforts to capture all those involved in Mafole's death.
