The essential point is simple, Pravin Gordhan's daughter Anusha Gordhan served as director in companies that were awarded tenders to the
value of well R100 million
Anisha Gordhan who Pravin Gordhan's daughter is said to have made more than R80 million from the work done by her companies in various government departments. These allegations are being circulated on Facebook and Twitter.
During the proceedings of the Zondo Commission, Minister Gordhan complained about unjustified attacked aimed at his family. He did not discuss details about the attacks although it was understood that he is referring to details of his daughter's business dealings.
On Wednesday the EFF released yet another statement in which the party re-iterates its claims to Minister Gordhan about his daughter's businesses.
"The essential point is simple, Pravin Gordhan's daughter Anusha Gordhan served as director in
companies that were awarded tenders to the value of well R100 million," said EFF.
EFF leader Julius Malema revealed that he had written to all government departments asking them as to whether did Anusha got awarded with tenders by them. He told his supporters that some department had already confirmed that Anusha was awarded with government tenders.
One of EFF leaders Floyd Shivambu launched yet another attack on Anisha Gordhan during his address of his party's members who protested outside the venue where the commission was taking place.
Shivambu claimed that Minister Gordhan received monies via his bank account in Canada. "When he was at SARS and people went there with problems, what he would do was to say pay money in an account in Canada," said Shivambu.
"Since when does the bank account of SARS exist in Canada? We have asked him the question and he is running away from responding to those question," he said.
Many of you keep saying we must prove the allegations. Well, here is the proof 1 of 8 departments:
