So true. We hear about the construction mafia almost every week but it's only black companies. I was actually very surprised to see that big white companies are also involved
Well done bro for bringing quality, critical and well-researched content. The delivery and latest journalistic style of presentation is world class! The editing and video quality shows the dedication and time spent on each project you put out! I hope we get more of this from you, and that more investment goes to this channel! Be our first SA black full time You Tube creator millionair!❤
Very well produced, big ups. Helen Zille: "...building a stadium is easier than upgrading an informal settlement... Development in poor communities causes conflict.... ". This is a complicated truth. It's a serious problems that's why we can't have nice things in informal settlements.
I really appreciate local RUclipsrs who are pushing boundaries the way that you are doing, so much valuable, fun and entertaining videos, keep this up this is brilliant, I'll support your movement 🙏
This was a great breakdown of the story but you left a couple of tasty morsels on the table about Moses Mabhida. Like the BIG multimillion Rand payoff for PG Mavundla when he sued the city for awarding the tender to a higher bidder with a lower BEE score. The court battles delayed the stadium drastically causing cost increases for an accelerated construction timetable. Similar events happened in Gqeberha. BTW Mavundla later became Deputy Mayor advised the city to sue the cartel.
My man, you’re killing it! This is the type of content we need in South Africa. I’ve been watching international RUclipsrs for so long because local wasn’t this educational. Thanks to you and your team brother. Keep going 🎉
This some fire content my brother, as South Africans, and personally speaking as the youth, we really need to know about these kind of things as they are detrimental as to how we move forward as a country because SESIKHATHELE yi corruption especially from the S/ mafia and these politicians and mostly ABELUNGU
Thank you Zimasa for compiling this report so well and for sharing much needed information with the general public. Been hoping to get a notification from your channel about a new upload of your report from Davos. Waiting patiently.
This was an eye-opening piece. Didn't know it was such a deep mess. I'm from Uganda and I thought RSA didn't have such issues. I can imagine the corruption horror that will happen to Uganda when we co-host the 2027 AFCON with our neighboring countries. Keep an eye out for the mess that will happen you may witness a far worse scenario than what happened in RSA
Brilliant work, Zimasa! Your video on the Moses Mabhida Stadium and the 2010 FIFA World Cup construction cartel was eye-opening and thoroughly explained. I’ve heard rumors that some of these companies are now operating under different names to continue tendering. It would be great if you could investigate this further. Keep up the great work, and I wish you much success with your channel!
This guy is giving me Johnny Harris vibes, talk about getting what I've been asking for Danko Zimasa "mooshtaffa" Vabaza, that MacG episode has led me to start following. Need to get the gents to start following you 👌
@mooshtaffa Were any of these companies also involved with what was going to be the biggest mall in the country(Moreletapark). If so, I would personally love a delve into that .
Thanks for, this breakdown brother!! What a mess!!! South Africa's monopoly economy, unethical corporations and terrible procurement and tendering processes are killing SA. Now we're maintaining, extremely costly, built by white monopoly companies. It's sad. Thanks for sharing stay safe bro.
The way you unpacked the tender issuing of Constructing the stadium is really amazing. To me It kind of seems like the Eskom issues they are having lately if I'm not wrong. WHEN YOU BUILD SOMETHING WITHOUT THE RIGHT SUSTAINABILITY in the upcoming Years(+10Yrs) the issues will be seen and the one who is left with fixing those issues in present will be used as the Scapegoat. I know it would need alot of research and time but May you please unpack the Eskom issue😂. A lot of People come with different answers but I need you to bring those different tap roots(E.g Cartels Being involved in crumbling Eskom; The government not resolving the issues Earlier; Some members of Government wanting to privatize energy as in their eyes they see it fit) into One
this is beautiful, it will be greater to reach an audience where you speak Xhosa, have subtitles. Its a good jab for us who understand, those who don't have understanding can be a new audience
brother i like your professionalism while engaging in provocative journalism listening to your depictions thereon, its like when my granny used to tell me izinganekwane, when i was so calm and alert your presentation just goes to capture my entire focus keep it coming mfe2
The speaker in Mbombela municipality (Jimmy Mohlala) was killed before he was to present evidence of corruption in building of the Mbombela stadium. Even Bobby Motaung (yes, that Bobby of Chiefs) was arrested for corruption related to this stadium. He and co had fraudulent tax certificates that enabled them to get a piece of the action. I think the decision of the NPA at that time was not to pursue the case as it would have been too expensive to prosecute.
I watched a World Cup soccer match of Portugal and Ivory Coast at the said Stadium. This Stadium impressed me with the precision it was done. Now this😮😮😮
Good quality content well done. Gloves are used to handle this corruption I wonder if it has any thing to do with who are the Owners of these companies and ibala labo.
Thanks for a show. What I would like to know about is if the fines where actually paid or if government did collect the fines. They could be paying lip service to the "fines".
Really informative, would be cool if you did the Kusile Power station, why have the costs overrun? and still no power from that station. Did the construction mafia do a number on Eskom there also?
Mara sekuyafana jo. Mina the only money i worry about is the money *I* work for and deserve. Ukuthi abo pravin and co nama cartel chowed billions, singenaphi. When they were running around working/organizing the world cup, thina we were busy singing "waka waka" 🎉🎉 ONLY WORRY YOUR OWN MONEY. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS "OUR COUNTRY'S MONEY"... Phuma lapho, tswa daar
Thinks brother mainstream goofies definitely buried this issues. I know if this companies was a black company would be reminded of this every year
Amen, that is true
Facts!!!
So true. We hear about the construction mafia almost every week but it's only black companies. I was actually very surprised to see that big white companies are also involved
This was extensively covered and shocked the country. Some of those companies are no longer on our shores.
E v e r y d a y!
Give this man his own show and give him full control.
He's fine just here. He'll be muted if he got his own show.
@@nichigo1979 he can also be muted here by Google. If u have forgotten. It's american platform. Content against American interest. Is blocked
But this is his own show...🙂 Here on RUclips.....or you mean TV show?
He’s fine on these platforms! He’s doing well..
@@UnathiGX I mean RUclips can block your channel. They have done it, to other people, some with more than 4 million subscribers.
This man went straight to the stadium to deliver this content... Dedication
Well done bro for bringing quality, critical and well-researched content.

BS!
Its surprising that mainstream media doesn't report such issues but they tell us about Zuma Gupta ntoni ntoni. This is juicy stuff
I really appreciate local RUclipsrs who are pushing boundaries the way that you are doing, so much valuable, fun and entertaining videos, keep this up this is brilliant, I'll support your movement 🙏

Interesting video
Do the construction mafia next
Who is refusing you to record next to the stadium .

Informative dawg, yadliwa imali lana😊

Research well done 👏👏👏
A brilliant well documented video from U but I never knew corruption is equally as big as it in Nigeria in SA also
Mxm mfana… keep making this content 💯😭🤞🏾
Please make a video about medical aid schemes and its corruption especially platinum health medical scheme in minning communities
The fact that some of this companies still plan on doing businesses with the state is insane.
Really informative, would be cool if you did the Kusile Power station, why have the costs overrun? and still no power from that station. Did the construction mafia do a number on Eskom there also?
I’m going down that rabbit hole 🕳️ 🐇 I’ll report back
Can you please touch on the controversies regarding the stadium in Mpumalanga with Bobby Motaung involved
Great video, vey informative 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you
