Senior Eskom exec allegedly ordered hit on whistleblower

A senior executive at Eskom allegedly offered a hitman R400,000 to assassinate a middle manager who had exposed looting operations by organised crime syndicates, City Press reports.

The hit was reportedly ordered on Dorothy Mmushi, a middle manager in the state-owned power utility's forensic department, who had reported a chain of illicit activities to the South African Police Service (Saps).

THis sentence

"Your boss is eating with these people"

Root issue.

I believe the man who called me was warning me of the plot to kill me,” said Mmushi.

Ja nee, that's how assassinations are done in South Africa, always call the prospective victim first, warn them to make arrangements etc.

Seeing that nothing has happened to her, they were probably just scaring her and there was never a hitman, because the job of a hitman is to kill the target, not to take a down payment, then give the target a friendly warning.

How else do you get paid twice for the same gig?....play them off against each other, make the job harder to do....then demand more money. Simples.

Why not just give her coffee? Or give a melodramatic bomb thread.

That seemed to work in the past, at least for half a time.

Africa had been a certain way for many hundreds of years, not by accident, but by design, in keeping with the inherent characteristics and nature of its people. Europeans came and changed that, forcefully, now it's returning to it's original state. Much like a rubber band!..... That's all it is.

You are correct. Africa was a certain way for 1000's of years, then the Europeans, and their cousins, came and change that with their "inherent characteristics and nature of its people"...killing, stealing, rape, oppression, lying, colonizing...and pretty much any bad thing.

well documented.

The crime cadres very busy these days

Awesome achievement cANCer. Eskom is like an infected rabid dog. The cANCer cadre virus will kill it eventually just like all the other SEO's in this sh|thole country. Infected with the vile slobbering fat fukk cANCer piggies.

 

[Zaahidad]

The greed for wealth among the PDA cadres proves the immorality is at ridiculous levels in this skewed so called democratic Kuntry. A life is nothing to these twats.

This lady was interviewed on the radio this morning and I'm afraid she doesn't sound too believable. She is also claiming de Ruyter is using her info for his claims on uncovering corruption without acknowledging even the email she sent him with allegations. Apparently also arrested by the Hawks last year.

Should have gone to Hillbrow. Coulda got a Nigerian to do it for R400.
