Ay ANC, they can lie jealous down haaa!... Public Protector Thuli Madonsela has implicated President Jacob Zuma directly in her report on the state’s spending of R206m at Zuma’s private Nkandla estate. Zuma had to date denied that the state had paid for the new homes on his estate. In an affidavit filed in the North Gauteng High Court in Pretoria on Tuesday afternoon, Madonsela for the first time said Zuma privately appointed the architect of the whole project. No tender process This means that Minenhle Makhanya Architects from Durban, who earned more than R18m from the Nkandla project, were not appointed after a tender process conducted by the department of public works, but by Zuma himself. Madonsela was surprised that the ministers made allegations of threats to state security when Zuma had himself appointed a private architect with “absolutely no security experience or clearance” to oversee the entire Nkandla project on behalf of the department of public works.
