Former Deputy President David Mabuza speaks at an event
The Mpumalanga Division of the High Court in Mbombela has postponed the matter of the estate claims of the late former Deputy President David Mabuza to next week.
Mabuza’s daughter, Tamara Silinda applied to the High Court to stop a retirement income solution company from paying out any portion of the fund to Mabuza’s widow, Nonhlanhla Mnisi.
Silinda wants the declaration of Mnisi as the sole beneficiary of the deceased’s living annuity be stayed pending the finalization of part B of her application.
She says Mabuza’s financial resources should be made available for the benefit of Mabuza’s dependents.
Mabuza nominated Mnisi as beneficiary for the R44.7 million payout.
Judge Henck Roelofse has ordered the investment company to file additional affidavits.
“I need Alexander Forbes to give me evidence why there’s such a discrepancy because ultimately the central issue to decide what is this money was invested in, is Alexander Forbes is here by ordered directed to file affidavits explaining the discrepancy between the policy schedule and policy document file affidavit not later than 16h00 on Friday 26 September 2025,” Judge Roelofse explains.
