The NdB Sunday Show: The gloves come off after “damning” evidence before Madlanga….

Loading player...
Fraudsters using AI to scam investors with a fake BizNews interview featuring Helen Zille and Chris Steyn. The inside story of almost two weeks of testimony at the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry from former police officer Willem Els who is now with the Institute for Security Studies (ISS). And Renaldo Gouws on his re-entry into politics. These are the topics on today’s NdB Sunday Show with Chris Steyn. Els hails KZN Provincial Police Commissioner Lieutenant-General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi for doing a “good job” in the presentation of his evidence. He notes the huge pressure National Police Commissioner Fannie Masemola was under when he arrived to testify. He calls the “very direct” testimony of Major-General Petronella Van Rooyen, Head of Governance at SAPS Legal Services, a “game changer”. As for the propaganda war raging around the key players, Els says: “I think the gloves are off…after…a week and a half of testimony, some damning evidence was tabled. And I think now it's going to heat up.” On the possible outcome, Els says: “…at the end of the day, I think the hope of South Africa is that we get to the bottom of this and that this can be the first step in starting to take back our streets from criminals and the restoration of the rule of law.”
