STUCK ON 41: WHY CORRUPTION STILL WINS IN SOUTH AFRICA

from Radio Islam · host Radio Islam

South Africa is stuck on 41 out of 100 in the latest Corruption Perceptions Index — and the message is clear: the promises aren’t landing. Commissions have come and gone, task teams have been launched, but public trust is still draining away. In this episode, we speak to a representative from Corruption Watch, on behalf of Executive Director Lebogang Ramafoko, to unpack what this score really says about accountability, political will, and whether South Africa is actually serious about turning the tide on corruption.
