Johannesburg – The Special Investigating Unit (SIU) says it welcomes the two judgments handed down by the Special Tribunal, which reviewed and set aside unlawful contracts awarded by the Mpumalanga Department of Health during the Covid-19 pandemic.
The contracts, valued at R1 080 000 for 60 000 surgical masks and R13 297 500 for 150 000 protective medical jumpsuits, were declared invalid, unlawful, and void.
Katleho Mokonyane and her business partner, Bonelela “Buzza” Mgudlwa, have been ordered by South Africa’s Special Tribunal to repay profits earned from the irregular contracts awarded by the Mpumalanga Department of Health in 2020.
The profits earned reportedly exceed a million rand.
