Tender empire exposed after threat to kill women who said “No, thanks” | Juanita du Preez

Loading player...
In their latest chat, Chris Steyn and Juanita du Preez of Action Society talk about the video of the tenderpreneur threatening to kill women in the powder room of a Sandton restaurant after they turned down his advances. Transport Minister Barbara Creasy has now ordered an investigation into his tenders. Infrastructure Minister Dean McPherson has ordered an investigation into his ratings. And Acting Police Minister Firoz Cachalia is asking Home Affairs to have a look at his status in South Africa as he is from an SADC country. And he will appear in court on October 1. They also give viewers an update on the murders of 9 women in Ekurhuleni where Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi told fearful residents not to get emotional; the belated sacking of suspended EMPD Chief Julius Mkhwanazi following five arrests since April; and Tembisa Hospital tender don Hangwani Maumela being hit with a R1,9 billion tax bill while still roaming free. Meanwhile, the latest crime statistics show that 72 women were reported raped every day the past two months.
