AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Madlanga Commission: South Africa’s Madlanga inquiry heard WhatsApp-linked allegations that suspended crime intelligence deputy head Maj-Gen Feroz Khan “facilitated” Covid-era police and National Treasury tenders via associate Mo Sayed, including guidance on PPE tender registration; Khan was absent after a hospitalisation following an assassination attempt. Eswatini Justice: Three brothers in Hhohho were charged with murder after allegedly beating their mother’s boyfriend to death over an alleged affair; they were remanded until July 10. King’s Mercy: King Mswati III ordered a review of convicted inmates’ sentences as part of 40/58 celebrations, citing rehabilitation and good behaviour. EMCU Probe: Prime Minister Russell Mmiso Dlamini defended the EMCU commission of inquiry, saying it was properly gazetted and mandated to investigate financial mismanagement, fraud allegations, governance failures and political interference. Public Finance Pressure: MPs raised concerns that delayed government payments are blocking suppliers from getting tax clearance certificates, even as Treasury officials disputed the extent of the delays. Investment Push: Eswatini is courting regional partners and Zimbabwean investors ahead of the July 29–31 Investment Conference, with EIPA urging early alignment and tangible deal-making. Energy Deal: Zimbabwean businessman Wicknell Chivayo secured a reported R3bn, 300MW solar project in Eswatini with CHiNT Electric, supported by land allocated by the King. Regional Trade: At the SACU summit, President Ramaphosa called for accelerated reforms and export strategies to boost intra-regional trade and competitiveness. MTN Leadership: MTN Eswatini appointed Jerry Soko as CEO effective July 1, ending his acting stint and citing improved operational discipline and customer focus.
