ActionSA notes with serious concern the allegations arising from the Madlanga Commission relating to an alleged WhatsApp exchange between a clearly implicated Sergeant Nkosi and the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of the City of Tshwane, Mr Gareth Mnisi, as well as claims that individuals believed to be representing ActionSA participated in discussions relating to tenders in the City of Tshwane.
The evidence led today at the Madlanga Commission will be followed closely for any further matters that may warrant the urgent attention of ActionSA’s leadership.
ActionSA regards any allegation of corruption or impropriety, even an untested one, with the utmost gravity and has accordingly initiated a full internal investigation to determine the veracity of the claims, including whether any ActionSA member was present at the alleged engagement and the identity of such individuals.
Importantly, this process is consistent with our position as a party committed to doing everything within our power to fight corruption and unethical behaviour. Should the investigation reveal any involvement by ActionSA members, the strongest action will be taken without hesitation or delay.
Furthermore, ActionSA has noted recent efforts to discredit the CFO more broadly. In this context, we treat the allegations as untested and potentially politically convenient and caution against taking them at face value, particularly given that they arise from a criminally implicated Sergeant Nkosi.
ActionSA will expedite this investigation and publicly report back in full on its findings to the South African people, in a manner consistent with our commitment to fighting corruption and providing ethical leadership, the yardstick of which will always be our willingness to investigate and act decisively when warranted.
ActionSA will maintain a strict distinction between the party and the state on this matter and will give ActionSA Mayor Dr Nasiphi Moya the space to lead in respect of the processes of the City of Tshwane, while ensuring that the party avails itself in any way required and shares information arising from its investigation.
