Public Protector probes R119-million tenders linked to Tshwane’s deputy mayor

  # The Public Protector has launched an investigation into multimillion-rand tenders awarded to a company formerly owned by Tshwane’s deputy mayor and ANC regional chairperson, Eugene Modise. According to News24, the DA requested the probe, alleging Modise still benefits from Triotic Protection Services, which secured contracts worth 119-million-rand from ANC-led municipalities. Modise denies any involvement, claiming he sold his shares. The Public Protector confirmed that the probe, focusing on possible maladministration and abuse of power, is in its early stages.
