ANC 'must repay Kebble millions'

ANC spokesman on CapeTalk has just said that the ANC did not act improperly and that they are not going to pay the money back.

This attitude kind of explains the total lack of morals in the South Africa society.

Whatever the legalities are, in a decent democracy they would've been forced to repay the money by public opinion.
 
As usual everyone here is gunning for the ANC, the article states that the DA also got money, but there is no mention of how much? Come now, this article is as biased as they can come, publish ALL the details.

DA repaid R250 000

DA spokesperson James Selfe said his party had been approached by the trustees and had repaid R250 000 that it had received.

"We were satisfied that the money had been received improperly and we have repaid the money in full and final settlement to the trustees."

The money had been received from a front company that "was quite clearly the recipient of money that had been improperly taken from JCI and other companies".

"We simply decided to pay the money back."

Try 'Cat in the Hat' or 'Noddy', if you don't read the whole thing it doesnt really matter so much.
 
I think part of the question that also needs to be asked is how money donated to a political party can be used to buy private property... That in itself is a huge problem

hey tb, I stand corrected, but I think he received it in a personal capacity, not directly thru the party.

The problem is that the anc sees them self as above the law.
They are a god and what they say goes and who are mere mortals to question their doings?
:mad: :mad:

I agree with TB. If this was a party donation, what was this guy thinking buying his mom a place?

Blatant corruption, same as the 'face time' rubbish. ANC leaders will do anything to hold onto cash. At least the DA was decent enough to send it back.

Heh.

If that happens I do believe the South African public will be entitled to sue the ANC for defrauding them, unless there's some special laws which prevents them from being sued thus.

The "special" law is that the anc makes and abides by whatever laws it fancies on the day. They believe themselves to be above the law and sadly it is true.

I believe you're wrong. But it will take someone who actually gives a damn rather than the apathy and minor rumblings we have now.
 
minor rumblings indeed, the quake and aftershock are still to come, hold on to your seats ;)

Like the arms deal bribery?
Or travelgate?

More likely, its gonna disappear quietly.
Or the anc will deploy diversion tactics again, by throwing up a smokescreen or by shifting attention by accusing somebody else of other crimes and instructing the media to "cool off" with the stories against them.
:sick: :sick:
 
The type of money that is being talked about here wont disappear very easily. This R24m is still the small change for the youth league louts and others.

ANC already have their lawyers on it probably trying to negotiate an amicable settlement out of court and in confidence, but as with the arms deal it will never go away until the whole truth emerges.

Remember the convenient channeling of funds for to the ANC for the election through Imvume?
Imvume got an empowerment loan from PetroSA of R18mil to buy oil, but gave R11mil to the ANC just sommer. ;)
Now Imvume defaults on the repayments and pleads bankruptcy.
 
I am looking forward to see the links between Brown from Fidentia and Cruickshank from Ovation in this saga of favors towards BEE and other politician groups. Easy to use stolen money to promote yourself and so easy for the current officials to DEMAND such favors.
 
SUNDAY TIMES APOLOGISES TO ANC

The Sunday Times has apologised to the ANC for a story it published last month headlined, "ANC must repay Kebble cash".

At the time, the SA Press Association (Sapa) reported on the main points of the Sunday Times story, and this report was subsequently used by a number of other media houses.

The African National Congress lodged detailed complaints about the original and subsequent reports with the Press Ombudsman.

On Sunday, the Sunday Times corrected its report.

Headlined, "Apology to ANC" on page two, the Sunday paper said: "On June 1, we published a story under the headline 'ANC must repay Kebble cash' which contained a number of inaccuracies, including the headline.

"The story misconstrued the implications of an unsuccessful court action launched by the ANC to expunge a R14.4 million claim by the deceased estate of Brett Kebble against the Kebble Buitendag Investment Trust (KBIT).

"The story incorrectly stated that the ANC had been ordered to pay back R14.4 million after an unsuccessful bid to hold onto donations from the slain mining magnate. The story also said the ANC had previously been instructed to repay more than R600,000.

"In fact, proceedings by the trustees of the trust against the ANC seeking repayment of R627,286.50 (and not R14.4 million) have yet to be heard and no court has yet determined that the ANC is liable to repay any donations.

"The high court action seeking expungement of the claim is the only court action instituted by the ANC in respect of donations it received from Kebble.

"We apologise to the ANC for the inaccurate information published," reads the Sunday Times apology.

Sapa editor Mark van der Velden said the agency lifted the main points of the original Sunday Times report in good faith on the basis that the information published was in the public interest.

Sapa erred in not promptly following up further on the issue with reaction from the ANC.

Sapa regrets the inconvenience the process caused the ANC.
