Loading player...
This episode of the BizNews Power Hour features an in-depth interview with ANC insider turned outsider Themba Maseko, one of the key whistleblowers at the Zondo Commission. Maseko was frozen out because he refused to agree to President Zuma's directive to turn over government's R600m advertising spend to the Guptas. His struggles continue, with Maseko needing to use his firearm to drive off two intruders over the weekend. Also in this episode, Tongaat whistleblower David Woollam shares what went down at the company's EGM today after which shareholders who have already lost 95% of their investment will be required to pony up six times their current stake or be further diluted.
