What's in City Press: NSFAS boss: companies were handpicked | Ex-DG in R5 billion scandal cries foul | Chickens and eggs: The worst is yet to come

Suspended National Student Financial Aid Scheme CEO Andile Nongogo says his suspension is linked to lucrative offtake agreements between companies which he claims were handpicked by a senior government official and the scheme’s board chairperson Ernest Khosa. The staggering figures are contained in an internal audit report which implicated the then project manager Matsiababa Motebele, who is now the vice-principal of operations and facilities, in wrongdoing.

Controversial former mayor of Rustenburg Matthew Wolmarans, who was convicted for killing ANC councillor and corruption whistleblower Moss Phakoe in 2009, has been implicated in a wasteful spending spree of R134 million in the Bojanala Platinum District Municipality.

The 24-yeard-old finds herself caught in a bitter feud between former Miss Teen SA Katlego Ncala and her estranged business partner Tony de Sousa. It was around 5pm when he got the dreaded call from his farm manager: 15 or so laying hens in one of the battery houses had died. Then he knew it was bird flu, says a chicken farmer from Gauteng. Who we choose to trust can have a profound impact on our lives.
