This is absolute madness. The City of Johannesburg rewards ineptitude of the highest order.
The upcoming LEG on the 4 November is going to correct this abnormally.
President Ramaphosa must just change this department from being called Department of Sport, Arts & Culture.
In practice, this department should just be called Department of International Travel.
Minister Gayton McKenzie's department spent R31 million on 75 delegates for an all-expenses-paid trip to the FIFA World Cup. They spent this money while our national hockey team have to crowdfund to go to the Hockey World Cup.

Suspended Police Minister Senzo Mchunu has cost taxpayers about R2.69-million in salary during his year-long special leave. This while the state has also continued funding his ministerial benefits and the salary of his replacement.

Today at the #MadlangaCommission:
IDAC head Advocate Andrea Johnson is finally on the stand after being subpoenaed following last week’s dramatic “medical emergency” no-show.
She faces tough questions on IDAC’s operations, alleged interference, and her relationships with key police figures. Will she deliver straight answers - or more deflection? South Africans are watching closely. What do you expect to hear?
If @PublicProtector is saying that spaza shops of foreigners, are illegal. Then @stellandabeni must come forward to explain that 500 million. What happened with that money
#ADHOCCOMMITTEE WAS TOTALLY A WASTE OF TAXPAYERS:
Imagine the #adhoccommitte has costed taxpayers R27.9 million and it cleared all these criminals of wrongdoings, bathong.
😭😭😭
A Mashatile and Makhura fvckup of epic proportions.
"Despite R11 billion of public funds being spent, this project now stands as a symbol of government failure."
Did you know?
former armed robber, prisoner, and 28 gang member Gayton McKenzie spent R31 million at the World Cup❗️
Some of the money was spent on supporters who were invited by the Department of Sports, but most of the money was used on McKenzie himself.
5 star hotels, limousine rides, lobster meals, massages, and shopping vouchers were what the Minister just had to spend on himself 🤧💔
South Africa’s silent tax: R45 BILLION a year stolen by copper cable syndicates from our SOEs.
Transnet alone lost R1.59 billion to crime in 2024/25. Eskom bleeds R5-7bn+ yearly, plus billions more to replace what thieves rip out.
That’s YOUR money. Bailouts, higher electricity tariffs, train delays, and crumbling infrastructure - all footed by taxpayers while syndicates get rich.
We’re subsidising organised crime destroying our future.
When does this end?
