BizNews Edge: SA is sitting on a defence asset it doesn't know it has; Malema; Tshwane and more

from BizNews Radio · host BizNews

Thirteen votes vanish, a city manager gets his job back, and Tshwane's bondholders are left wondering what happens to every tender signed while he was out. Kallie Kriel tells Chris Steyn that AfriForum is coming for Julius Malema again, and this time the government's in the crosshairs too. Then Ivor Ichikowitz, the famously private founder of Paramount, breaks his silence on the defence empire he built out of South Africa, and on a fresh survey showing Africa's youth quietly picking sides between Washington and Beijing. Plus: Nedbank's numbers hide a bigger story, the JSE reports on itself, Old Mutual's frozen Zimbabwe shares get a lifeline, and Palantir hands Wall Street another reason to pay attention.
