EC Premier Hit with Fresh Corruption Claims as AfriForum Alleges Prosecutorial Interference
Update: 2025-12-04
Description
Eastern Cape Premier Oscar Mabuyane is facing fresh corruption allegations. AfriForum's Private Prosecution Unit claims provincial prosecutors tried to shield him from charges by misleading the Hawks. The unit says it has proof the Director of Public Prosecutions decided not to prosecute Mabuyane months ago, but falsely claimed more investigation was needed. The Hawks have contradicted this version, saying they were never told further probes were required. The allegations link Mabuyane to money funnelled from transport contracts for Winnie Madikizela-Mandela's funeral. Elvis Presslin spoke to Barry Bateman, Spokesperson for Afriforum's Private Prosecution Unit
