I was part of the team that undertook a forensic investigation into the corrupt activities around the establishment of the Waterfall Estate development in Midrand
The Mia family (ANC funders) who originally owned the property upon which Waterfall Estate is now built, bribed officials at the then Gauteng Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Environment to gain approval to develop the most sensitive and environmentally important piece of contiguous egoli granite grassland in the whole of Gauteng.
The approval was contingent on a huge donation being made to the ANC at the time.
We could never work out how Century Developers were always able to secure authorisation for the continuous development of the area in contravention of environmental legislation.
It is clear now that Mashatile was using his influence with the officials at GDARDE in return for a property in the exclusive development.
It's just never ending with these criminals in the ANC.

Summers’s return to Pick and Pay shows there was simply no Plan B #MoneywebNews moneyweb.co.za/news/companie… via @Moneyweb
IKE, the ANC has started unleashing services delivery. What do you call the vanity project 'Nasi Ispani?' They are targeting the youth which is the danger in terms of voter base
The 'Presidential Imbizo' is nothing but a campaign trail of dishing out projects using govt depts.

Proud moment: @JIAS_UJ worked with @JonathanBallPub to reissue Bloke Modisane's Blame Me on History. The author would've turned 100 on Monday, 28 August, and September marks the 60th anniversary of Blame ame on History.
....because by then you already have missed 60minutes of "umrabulo" open mic session of #POWERUp on @Powerfm987 with @mararamoabelo. Worse, 4:30am they are starting with insightful guest interviews🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️.
So, rather, join at 3:00am

Professor #MaloseLanga is not only an author and researcher. He is also a psychologist who has done extensive analysis on youth culture in South Africa - his latest analysis being the 'Skhothani Culture.'
Tune in to @Powerfm987's #POWERUp with @MararaMoabelo for more.
The culture of "luh twizzzy" needs to be nipped on the bud. #Montecasino was able to do so & got this cultish craze off their premises
Other Malls need to do the same & @SAPoliceService needs to SHOW the fuck up. They were able to find 43k "hidden tyres" in less than 23hrs mos

Bloke Modisane passed away on this day in 1986. Well known as a journalist and his autobiography, Blame Me on History, in Europe he was more established as an actor and broadcaster. These images are from Once a Spy (1964), Pursue the Dry Stubble (1959) and Dark of the Sun (1968).
