Today, he chairs the Standing Committee on Finance, overseeing the very public money he failed to protect.
This is Part Two of Unfinished Business. Watch, share, and ask the question: how long do we allow this?

Billions were looted from PRASA. Trains collapsed. Commuters were forced to spend three times more just to get to work, to school, to their lives.
Joe Maswanganyi served as Minister of Transport during a critical period of this collapse. He weakened PRASA's board.

He blocked corruption investigations. He knew about the R79 million stolen in the Swifambo deal and did nothing.
The Ethics Committee eventually found that he "failed to act in accordance with the public trust placed in him."
His punishment? A two month suspension.

From daily delays to unsafe journeys, commuters are not powerless — when we organise, speak up, and build collective action, we can demand a public transport system that works for the people.

🚨 On 8 Sept, the City plans to cut funding for Dial-A-Ride — a lifeline for people with disabilities.

This is not just about transport. It’s about dignity, access & the right to participate fully in society.

#UniteBehind stands with Disability Revolution

[UniteBehind @UniteBehind]

This isn’t just about universal access & transport, it’s about the right to dignity and freedom of movement!

[Тania Melnyczuk @ekverstania]

From 8 September 2025, thousands of disabled residents in Cape Town will be stranded in their homes.

The court will reserve judgement and will await the new affidavit

[UniteBehind @UniteBehind]

Our final submission: we must not lose sight of what this complaint is about. The people who use transport, who struggle to barely make ends meet, those who face violence on an every day basis.

This is the context of these complaints. Real people’s lives!

Comp: If a member of Parliament had resigned and has after the fact been found guilty, they may still be sanctioned as was the case with Boris Johnson.

The case should be completed while it is still ongoing as delaying it could compromise it.

[UniteBehind @UniteBehind]

The affidavit will be sent and considered by the bench after-which they will submit a verdict.

The #UB is now responding to the respondent.

[UniteBehind @UniteBehind]

#UB will submit an application to permit the affidavit in question.

[UniteBehind @UniteBehind]

We have presented the re-signed affidavit.

The respondent is objecting to the presentation of the affidavit. They claim that it is different.

[UniteBehind @UniteBehind]

Our team is replying now!

[UniteBehind @UniteBehind]

Resp: the matter is one of legality not PAJA

[UniteBehind @UniteBehind]

Resp: the fact that a legislation is abused does not make it unconstitutional
