LETTER TO MAHLAMBA NDLOPFU: Sies for Sisisi’s creative accounting and the cat with crocodile tears
It’s been a wild time for statecraft as a paper trail leads us to a minister’s game, dumbbells ring for JZ, Mbalula blubs, the head of the police pulls a Terminator and Carrim does that which is haram.
A recent controversy surrounding former Social Development Minister Nokuzola "Sisisi" Tolashe's creative accounting practices has drawn attention. According to the Public Service Commission, Sisisi allegedly transformed a food aid program into a household income-generating scheme, providing taxpayer-funded groceries. This innovative approach was hailed as a revolutionary economic development strategy at the time.
