The Political Desk: Where did the money come from?

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Sandile Swana about recurring questions around money, power and accountability in South African politics. From historical investigations to modern controversies such as the Phala Phala scandal and oversight by bodies like the Standing Committee on Public Accounts and the Constitutional Court of South Africa, the discussion explores whether democratic institutions are effectively holding leaders accountable or if the country remains stuck in a cycle of scandal and inquiry. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg-based talk radio station.   Bongani makes sense of the news, interviews the key newsmakers of the day, and holds those in power to account on your behalf.
