Does Zuma's corruption know no bounds?

Johannesburg - President Jacob Zuma coaxed government departments into committing nearly R900m to a programme run by an NGO he chairs and which is run by his cousin, City Press reported on Sunday.

The Masibambisane Rural Development Initiative is a private NGO chaired by Zuma and run by Deebo Mzobe.

A multimillion-rand state food security programme, set to be approved by Cabinet later this month, has in effect been subcontracted to Masibambisane, which will co-ordinate the campaign on behalf of government.

Asked why government needed a middleman like Masibambisane to run the food-security initiative, Agriculture Minister Tina Joemat-Pettersson, a staunch proponent of Masibambisane, said the NGO’s purpose was to “network” and bring partners into the initiative.

She added that no government money would flow to Masibambisane.

Too many of us are keyboard activists, hence this kind of thing continues. That's why I admire people like EFF for actually going out there and agitating for change.

How I wish we had some sort of successful "spring", even though I'm still a student and don't pay taxes yet the thought of my future hard earned cash going to idiots like Zuma and members of the ANC makes my blood boil, enough to just immigrate the second I'm qualified, I refuse to fund this sort of corruption :mad:

a spring is the last thing this country needs, it'll be the quickest route to zim... a second term for zuma is the more scenic route

The DA and other parties have been "agitating for change" for years, but you'd rather praise a party that was started yesterday. You either are joking or are a joke.

So she be a henchwoman in Zuma's service. Never doubted it that was her calling.
 
Take it easy chaps. What are a few millions between comrades. Welcome to the free South Africa 20something.
