Left-wing media and its journalists were apparently bribed by Bosasa and form part of the corruption scandal

Posted on Leave a comment

Former Bosasa chief, Angelo Agrizzi, has been rattling the cages  of the so called left-wing media and journalists when he named the names of journalists who are part of the corruption scandal. This all happened during the court procedure where he was giving evidence on day seven.

According to Agrizze, as much as R30,000 a month was paid to journalists to write positive reports about Bosasa, but there are also journalists who refuse to admit they were bribed.

One company director asked for R71,000 to be paid, of which R30,000 has to be set aside for journalists, which, according to observers, is indicative of the extent of the Bosasa corruption network.

This is the big one: Bosasa allegedly bribed Jacob Zuma with R300k a month

Posted on Leave a comment

It’s been reported that former Bosasa executive Angelo Agrizzi is saving his best state capture inquiry testimony until last. Jacob Zuma is next in the cross-hairs.

If you’ve been engrossed by the sheer theatre of Angelo Agrizzi’s testimony to the state capture inquiry this week, we’ve got news for you: The best is yet to come. It’s now been alleged that the witness’ full affidavit contains some jaw-dropping details about how Bosasa kept Jacob Zuma onside during his time as president.

As reported by the Sunday Times, company CEO Gavin Watson paid Zuma an eye-watering R300 000 a month to keep the NPA wolves away from their door. Watson himself has been accused of building an empire on bribes, and at one point was described as a man “who could make people disappear”.

It would be the second high-profile bribe Jacob Zuma has been accused of taking wi

Is anyone actually surprised that former president Jacob Zuma is implicated by Angelo Agrizzi in Bosasa’s nest of corruption and where he allegedly received R300 000 per month in bribery money

Posted on Leave a comment

Former head of Bosasa, Angelo Agrizzi, announced in his testimony before the Commission on State Enquiry that Jacob Zuma had received thousands of rand from the organization every month.

He said Bosasa paid Jacob Zuma R300 000 a month and he was “on the payroll” of the company.

Allegedly, one has seen what was recorded in the statements by Angelo Agrizzi, and that Gavin Watson apparently made payments to Zuma regularly not to disclose his actions.

Political analysts say it will take Cyril Ramaphosa very long to curb all the corruption, while others think it will rather increase in monetary value as well as in the number of cases.

Angelo Agrizzi also reported that there were other people who shared in the additional income, and referred to two people who each received R100,000 to keep silent.

The State capture saga has kick-off for 2019 and 12 insane revelations from ex-Bosasa chief Angelo Agrizzi

Former Bosasa COO Angelo Agrizzi makes the Guptas look like monks. His damning testimony at the state capture inquiry has turned heads nationwide.

We just do not know where to begin on this one. The state capture inquiry is most definitely doing its job, as bombshell testimony became a weekly fixture before Christmas. This was the commission’s first day back, and honestly, it was a thriller. Former Bosasa COO Angelo Agrizzi has been spilling tea like no-one’s business.

The security service company have long been under suspicion for a series of dodgy deals with private business, and the ANC government. In their most recent controversy, they made a suspicious payment of R500 000 to Cyril Ramaphosa’s son, Andile – a deal that still hasn’t been fully explained.

He was allowed access to NPA files
