we appreciate you journalists, thank you

This is brilliant journalism, decent production as well. We need more

[@Clyne-mt7do]

So the question is who released those payments? We know the guptas are guilty but what about our fellow South Africans that threw us under the bus. They must be charged for treason!!

[@sanelenkosi263]

You are right they must face the law

Glad to see some quality investigative journalism coming out of South Africa. The quality of journalism in SA can be below the international standard sometimes.

[@Predikant]

@@tiisetsomvula6429 the annual budget for the financial year 2020/21 is projected to be approximately R 1.58 Trillion, some figures say that it is more, namely R 1.95 Trillion whilst others state it to be less. The ANC has been in power for 27 years, out of the 20 Trillion plus Rand that they accrued from the tax-payer I can assure your with the utmost certainty that the amount stolen is well into the Billions, I don't work at the treasury nor is my name Gupta. I have personally seen Cadres on shopping sprees in Dubai buying up Rolex watches by the bag full, these start at around R 160 000.00 for the basic models, which I know do not stack up to the discerning taste of our elite. The numbers do not add up, how can a Civil Servant afford to live such a life of luxury? Their homes have also been renovated recently at a cost of half a Billion. The cars that they drive cannot be compared with their counterparts in Europe, the United States or Canada. I cannot see how this wealth is being distributed equitably amongst all South Africans when we have sewage running through the streets, no electricity, no potable running water and a rail network that is in an appalling state, did I mention the roads or our National Airline?

News 24 I find it amazing that in some of your videos the comment section is switched off. Is this not censorship? Are you scared of people's opinions? But then apparently this rule does not apply to you? Such as in the case of the guy accused of playing with himself in a Stellenbosch library. The video was loaded without first making sure what really happened? If I was him I would most definately take you to court over this, as it was later proven via a letter from his doctor that he has a medical problem. ( I guess he suffers from a disability causing his hand/s to shake) Shame on you
