Another ANC Chief Whip, another State Capture scandal
13 August 2019
The Democratic Alliance is concerned, but not surprised that another senior ANC member has been linked to one of the key players in the deceptive web of State Capture, Regiments Capital.
ANC Chief Whip in the Gauteng Legislature, Sochayile Khanyile, has been fingered, in an Amabhungane article, as a facilitator of alleged corruption during his time as ANC Secretary in Ekurhuleni.
The article links Khanyile to a land deal in the municipality and how he and another ANC member would “…give support for the project and offered to unblock the apparent bureaucratic obstacles we are now experiencing”.
This is according to Litha Nyhonyha, co-founder of Thebe Investment Corporation – whose founding shareholder is an ANC investment vehicle- Batho Batho Trust, and at the time of the above quote, Executive Chairman of Regiments Capital.
