SIU spokesperson Kaizer Kganyago said:"Our team has been there [at the Gauteng treasury] for a week or more. They have already established that there are 90 companies that they are investigating ... just for the health department in relation to PPEs only. If one of them is to the value of R125m and there are 90 of them, it's a lot of money.
One of the companies on the leaked list is Royal Bhaca, owned by Bhaca King Thandisizwe Diko, husband of presidency spokesperson Khusela Diko. Thereported last week that his company Royal Bhaca was awarded two contracts worth a combined R125m. Former ANC activist and businessman Thabiso Lekoana also features on the list, which states that his company, LNG Scientific, won R113m in contracts. Lekoana confirmed doing business with the department, but declined to comment further.
The whole thing seems so unscrupulous and filthy, one doubts it will ever meet the National Treasury-issued regulations pertaining to emergency procurement of supplies and servicesMasuku's spokesperson, Kwara Kekana, would not release a list of companies that have won department tenders and would not comment further"to avoid interference with the ongoing investigation".
"South Africa is becoming a nation of thieves, with the most unscrupulous enablers in official positions all too ready to feast on the relief meant for the most vulnerable in our society."
