Just who is Zandile Gumede? A look at eThekwini's mayor
14 May 2019
At the centre of another high-profile corruption case to hit the ANC is political KwaZulu-Natal heavyweight Zandile Gumede.
She was granted R50 000 bail on Tuesday in a case in which she is accused of a string of charges, which include money laundering, corruption and racketeering.
Gumede and regional deputy secretary Mondli Mthembu handed themselves over to the police on Tuesday morning.
The eThekwini mayor, who chairs the biggest region in KwaZulu-Natal, is one of former president Jacob Zuma’s closest allies.
