While the WMC puppet was getting his dollars looted the Master was also having big problems of his own.
WMC Puppet?
EFF deputy president Floyd Shivambu spent an afternoon at an exclusive wine estate in Stellenbosch discussing potential business plans with one of South Africa's richest men, Johann Rupert.
In the past, the EFF labelled Rupert "the enemy" and named him as the face of white monopoly capital (WMC) who had become rich by exploiting poor black South Africans, a view Shivambu told News24 he shared.
These revelations of Shivambu's secret rendezvous with Rupert, whom the party has vilified in the past, are contained in a new book by News24 assistant editor Pieter du Toit titled
The Stellenbosch Mafia: Inside the Billionaire's Club.
Du Toit delves deep into a world almost exclusively occupied by the country's richest men.
The book promises to reveal who these fabulously wealthy individuals are and what influence they exert not only on Stellenbosch, but more broadly, on South African society.
Du Toit also reveals how Shivambu, one of the most vociferous critics of white capital, is apparently far closer to Rupert than he would have the country believe.
Shivambu, when approached on Saturday, did not directly deny the Tokara meeting to News24, but denied having a relationship with Rupert.
Stellenbosch Mafia further reveals that Shivambu:
- Sent Rupert information of the ANC's inner workings during the 2017 national elective conference and revealed to the billionaire that Cyril Ramaphosa would win the ANC presidential race.
- Advised Rupert to be interviewed by Given Mkhari of PowerFM who hosted Rupert for an insert of the annual Chairman's Conversation in December 2018.
