Health minister Zweli Mkhize says he does nnot believe it is necessary for him to step aside while the Special Investigating Unit probes a R82m tender issued to a company linked to his associates.

Health minister Zweli Mkhize says he won't step aside while the SIU investigates an R82m tender.Health minister Zweli Mkhize says he does not believe it is necessary for him to step aside while the Special Investigating Unit probes an R82m tender issued to a company linked to his associates.

“We will be co-operating with the investigation and, in this regard, we believe that the process is secure enough in the hands of those investigators that no further steps are necessary — and that, of course, we will only deal with the outcome of the investigations when it is released,” said Mkhize.Mkhize said that once the investigation was completed, the findings would be made public.

Daily Maverick broke the story of how Digital Vibes had been appointed in 2019 through a closed tender to provide communication services for the government’s National Health Insurance rollout, with the scope of the work extended in March 2020 to include communications services for Covid-19.According to the publication, Digital Vibes won the tender irregularly and later employed Tahera Mather, a long-serving spokesperson and alleged family friend of Mkhize, as a consultant.

The step aside question was asked in context of the ANC’s “step aside” rule, yet to be finalised, which seeks to have leaders charged with serious crimes — such as party secretary-general Ace Magashule — vacate their positions until they are cleared. DA MP Siviwe Gwarube said to Mkhize: “Recently you have also been implicated in a dubious contract worth R82m, which is under investigation and has now been halted. There are damning allegations against you and your involvement in the awarding of this contract to people who are close associates of yours, which could result in a conflict of interest.

All of them, don't wanna step aside

OMG.....The ROT OF THE TOP BRASS IN THE S.A. GOVERNMENT will NEVER CEASE TO EXIST!!!

Typical. When you're part of a morally bankrupt organisation you would act in this way.

Pyper_001 He is a looter-cadre they do what they like

Because he so honest

That's the problem with you leaders

ANC policy to the people of South Africa

Of course not. It’s not the ANC way.

Zuma today. Every other Politician tomorrow.

No one step aside in deployed cadres organisation. You won't be differed

When is he going to fetch more vaccines? I can see they're not going to reach that 1,5 million jab target by month end.

Of course DrZweliMkhize will not step aside. More capable health ministers in countries that overcame CoViD-19 stepped down for far less, because they hold themselves to high standards. That level of accountability is married to competence.

Another cadre declaring himself innocent. His conflict of interest is so huge he cannot possibly decide his own position. Ever heard a deployed cadre say: 'sorry I am guilty'? Mkize is no better.

I believe in Zweli. He is one of the few good guys. They should all face the music if guilty, but please don’t use him to shift the focus from the obvious bad guys

Behind every successful person there is alway a man/ woman trade with Amelimarkdonald she the woman behind my success story😘 thanks for giving me hope... Once again trade with Amelimarkdonald Am 💯 guaranteed

No need for anyone in the ANC to step aside. They have dismantled the justice system and are openly defying the constitutional court
