OUTA pushes for Mabuza co-accused to answer for corruption


The Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse (OUTA) says, despite the death of former deputy president David Mabuza, those accused of corruption alongside him should be held to account.

Conservationist Fred Daniel is seeking over R1 billion in damages. He alleges that Mabuza and others, including the Mpumalanga government, orchestrated fraudulent land scams in Mpumalanga.

Daniel also claims his nature reserve was targeted with vandalism, arson, and death threats after he exposed the scheme.

OUTA’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Wayne Duvenage says Daniels needs to be compensated for the damage done to what was going to be a world-class reserve had it been allowed to develop and create jobs and income for the country.

“Which was scarpered by the conduct of David Mabuza and his cohorts in that province. So, we must never allow the legacies that people have created to be forgotten as well,” says Duvenage.
