Gangster State

the IgoFiles show that three days after receiving the invitation,
Mpambani withdrew R 150 000 from 605 Consulting Solution’s
account at an FNB branch in Rivonia, near Sandton. At that stage, 605
Consulting had about R 2 million left of the nearly R 9 million that
Mpambani had transferred from the Diamond Hill account the previous
month for ‘engineering services’. The day before Magashule’s speech,
Mpambani drove down to Bloemfontein, swiping his Diamond Hill and
605 Consulting bank cards at toll gates and a fuel station along the
way. He booked into the Southern Sun hotel, across the road from the
FNB ATM in Brandwag near the premier’s official residence. The
following afternoon, after the State of the Province Address, Mpambani
spent money at restaurants and clothing stores in Bloemfontein’s
Mimosa Mall and elsewhere in the city. He returned to Gauteng the
next morning, filling up at an Engen fuel station across the road from
his hotel just after 9 a.m. and swiping his bank cards at the series of
toll gates between Bloemfontein and Johannesburg.
On 26 March 2015 , a third payment of R 25 million from the FSHS
landed in the Blackhead–Diamond Hill joint account. Once again,
Mpambani made several large payments for ‘consulting’ and
‘engineering’ services to various entities, including another R 500 000
to El Jefe Consulting, former soccer star Jimmy Tau’s company. This
correlates exactly with the payment schedule set out in the dubious
‘Free State Asbestos’ Excel spreadsheet, which shows that ‘JT’ was
supposed to get half a million rand after the third instalment of the
asbestos payments was received.
The spreadsheet also shows that ‘AM’ (Ace Magashule?) and ‘MEC’
(Mathabo Leeto?) were due to receive R 1 million and R 1. 5 million
respectively at this time. Mpambani made payments that matched
