Today’s testimony before the Madlanga Commission lays bare the rot that runs straight to the top of the SAPS, confirming what the Democratic Alliance has warned South Africans about for the past two years: corruption within the South African Police Service’s procurement environment was never the work of a few rogue officials. It appears to have been systemic, involving senior officials entrusted with safeguarding public funds who instead orchestrated a predatory procurement network for personal enrichment.

While violent criminals terrorise communities across South Africa, those sworn to protect the public were allegedly running a procurement mafia, diverting millions intended for policing into their own pockets. This is a betrayal of the highest order, and there can be no more excuses those responsible must be held fully accountable.

The DA therefore calls on the relevant law enforcement authorities to move swiftly. If the evidence supports the allegations emerging before the Commission, Lt Gen Molefe Fani must be arrested and criminally charged alongside every individual involved in this corrupt network.

Today's evidence paints an alarming picture of how individuals were allegedly communicating with Fani while he was still serving within Supply Chain Management at National Treasury. This raises a deeply troubling question that can no longer be ignored: was Fani deliberately positioned within SAPS Supply Chain Management to ensure that CAT ultimately secured the R360 million health tender?

This allegation strikes at the heart of public procurement integrity. If procurement officials were strategically placed to manipulate tender outcomes for politically connected companies, then this was not merely maladministration it was the deliberate capture of the SAPS procurement system.

For the past two years we have repeatedly warned that serious irregularities within SAPS procurement required urgent investigation.

At the end of 2024, following the Auditor-General's findings exposing serious procurement failures, the DA specifically challenged Fani to account for these glaring irregularities. He was unable to provide satisfactory answers. Instead of confronting the evidence, there was silence and evasion while public money continued to be placed at risk.

Today's testimony gives even greater weight to those concerns.
The evidence emerging before the Commission demands more than internal disciplinary processes or further excuses. It requires immediate criminal investigation.

Anyone who abused their public office to manipulate procurement processes, facilitate corruption or unlawfully influence the awarding of state contracts must face the full might of the law.

South Africans deserve a police service that fights corruption not one that is itself compromised by corrupt procurement officials enriching themselves at taxpayers expense.

@CapitecBankSA Not going to happen.
It can remain dormant on your books for eternity.
It might help with your financial reporting by inflating the number of customers you have

[Maurits WestCoast @oumq8]

@CapitecBankSA just like Hotel California, you can check out any time but you can’t leave.

Opened account online, no staff intervention. Never used account, zero balance and they refuse to close account without me going into branch.
Not gonna happen. Keep it open I don’t care

“I note…” 🤦🏻‍♂️

[John Steenhuisen MP @jsteenhuisen]

I note an email originating from a ministry staff member.

The email was in bad taste and I have requested the person concerned to apologise to the respective parties.

We must continue to show mutual respect and always act in good faith.

Because it is only through collaboration that we can overcome major obstacles in the sector.

[Maurits WestCoast @oumq8]

I note = sorry..not sorry

[Acclaimed Journalist @Jonathan_Witt]

Yeah, not good enough.

The culture of your office is one of disdain and dismissiveness.

You don’t fix that with an apology.

[Maurits WestCoast @oumq8]

Almost everything you’re saying is false and simply copying fake news from other accounts.

There is a US government arm of SpaceX called Starshield, which has a different set of satellites than Starlink, which is for civilian use.

The company that makes the suicide drones incorrectly used the civilian system, instead of the Starshield.

$TSLA Where is that pullback to $360.00 that some expected?

And why some continue to miss these rallies, because they keep thinking stocks needs to pullback when the fact is they already did, weeks ago.

🚨 PRESIDENT TRUMP on allowing White South African farmers into our country, as an exception to his asylum moratorium:

"In South Africa, there's a very horrible thing going on... it's a GENOCIDE!"

"They KlLL people if they're white! They KlLL White farmers!"

"We SUSPENDED all refugee resettlement, except for persecuted South Africans."

[Maurits WestCoast @oumq8]

@BillAckman Staggering bravery from the young boy to go down there

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

The South African laws are literally super racist, plain and simple.

It’s not complicated: imagine if the law was called “White Empowerment”, instead of “Black Empowerment”! People would have a seizure 😂

South Africa now has more anti-White laws than Apartheid had anti-Black laws. Think about that for a second …

The current South African government has objectively implemented Apartheid 2.0. Shame on them.
