Tony Leon lobbying scandal and the DA civil war with Solly Moeng

Loading player...
In his latest chat with Chris Steyn, political commentator Solly Moeng dissects the widening scandal around Tony Leon's lobbying amid former Democratic Alliance (DA) leader John Steenhuisen’s mission of vengeance and the damaging fall-out for the party. “...what is very clear is that the DA is no longer just walking on still waters…Geordin Hill-Lewis can't be sleeping with both eyes closed right now...” Moeng also comments on the skeletons toppling out of closets thanks to the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry, including the relationship between Crime Intelligence (CI) Chief General Feroz Khan and Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) CIC Julius Malema. As for IDAC Chief Andrea Johnson’s sudden hospitalisation ahead of her appearance, Moeng says: “...we see the growth of this so-called Madlanga Ward at some hospital out there…We've been a country of no consequences for too long. They might try…by getting hospitalised, delay processes, lie, protect one another. South Africans must not sleep until there are consequences. We're not just looking for entertainment, we're looking for people to fall because they cannot do this to South Africa and get away with it.” Meanwhile, Moeng hails the arrest of former Ekurhuleni City Manager Imogen Mashazi, one among a spate of top officials and policemen facing the law after being implicated at the inquiry into police and political capture.
