Minister of Sports, Arts and Culture Zizi Kodwa together with his co-accused former EOH boss Jehan Mackay appeared in the Plam Ridge Magistrate’s Court on Wednesday in connection with allegations that he allegedly received R1, 6 million in bribes.
Kodwa was granted R30K bail. The charges against Kodwa form part of a probe into contracts worth more than R460 million that the city of Johannesburg awarded to EOH Holdings in 2016.
The Zondo commission found that Kodwa was implicated in questionable transactions between himself and Mackay. Between February 2014 and April 2015 EOH related entities and Mackay were said to have made cash payments if around R1, 6 million to Kodwa who allegedly benefited from luxury accommodation, loans and other gratuities.
