For clarity: At the time, Supply Chain Management reported directly to the National Commissioner, and the procurement process, including the Bid Adjudication Committee under Lt Gen Fani, fell outside her authority.
Her role as CFO was to confirm the availability of funds and to exercise financial oversight and compliance. That placed her within the broader financial control environment, but not in the decision-making chain that awarded the contract.
When concerns around the contract emerged, the matter was flagged, recorded as potential irregular expenditure, and referred for investigation. That is consistent with what would be expected of a responsible financial manager. SAPS Internal Audit had also raised concerns, which suggests the key issue was not her involvement in the award, but rather how the system responded once risks had already been identified.

President Jacob Zuma in 2021 was sentenced with Sikhakhane making the same arguments as Ngcukaitobi; Ngcukaitobi was adamant Zuma was a recalcitrant convicted criminal. Ngcukaitobi is today making the same heads of arguments as Sikhakhane, on a convicted criminal. Politics. ๐คทโโ๏ธ

โข I agree with everything Lt. General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi said during the press briefing in July and in this Commission.
โขMinister Mchunu tried to bully me but I had to soften him up, until I realized no man, ngiyahlanyelwa la.
โขWe all thought the Political Killings Task Team [PKTT] was doing a good job but the Minister still wanted it disbanded which didn't make sense.
โขCrime Intelligence Head Dumisani Khumalo knows his job, very experienced and we (SAPS) rely on him when it comes to cracking sophisticated high profile cases.
โขThe President can't be trusted because he says this to one side and changes his tune to others. Hence we are in this mess today.
โขI don't see eye-to-eye with Deputy National Commissioner Shadrack Sibiya. He is rude; corrupt and undermines me. Hence I wanted him investigated and suspended. He even reported directly to the Minister yet I am his direct line of report.
โขYes; I know about the deployment of the police unit situation at the Richard's Bay Minerals but can't provide further information. [๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ท๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐น๐ฉ๐ด ๐๐๐๐๐๐/๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐].
โขPoliticians are corrupt and make us the police do things we don't want to do and which are against the law.
Thank you and goodbye!

I've never had a problem admitting when I'm wrong. What I won't accept is someone making me feel like I was the only problem. Things are never one-sided, and I'm not going to waste my time arguing about it
In 1959, Bishop Frederick Modise got very sick, his mortuary was broken into, and his children from first wife died mysteriously. He broke out of ZCC, and in 1962 founded IPHC.
Do you know the link between undertakers and comforters? Do you know the symbolism of white gloves?
Chinese have been hiring yal to teach them English, and now they are using that language to speak to the world, clear and loud. They have been waiting to press the Red button....
Now that's preparation and patience.
Over to you @realDonaldTrump
China is the only country in history to become an economic superpower without war or dropping bombs
I have no reason to hate China. China is not our enemy. Our enemy is the criminal ruling class
The level of privatisation that happened during the Mandela- Mbeki transition has to be one of the most brutal in this world. People who argue that Thabo Mbeki is an intellectual surprise me.
