President Cyril Ramaphosa has signed four new proclamations authorizing the Special Investigating Unit (SIU) to probe allegations of corruption, fraud, and maladministration at the Ithala Development Finance Corporation, the Greater Kokstad Local Municipality, the Lepelle-Nkumpi Local Municipality, and Greater North Transport. These investigations aim to uncover financial mismanagement, irregular contracts, and any unlawful conduct that may have led to financial losses for the government.
