How corruption kills - Jack Bloom on almost 30 years of looting in Gauteng

Loading player...
The Gauteng government has been rocked by corruption scandal after corruption scandal for nearly three decades. Veteran Democratic Alliance (DA) politician Jack Bloom, who has served in the Gauteng government since 1994, has witnessed it first hand. He gives BizNews the details of case after case in a province where three of the “Top Seven” in the ruling African National Congress (ANC) came up through the ranks. He describes how some corrupt officials simply got re-elected while others have never been held accountable because of never-ending investigations. “It's quite clear there's an utter lack of shame and utter lack of accountability…And I'd like to see some justice and accountability finally. These cases need to come to court, you know, and people need to be found guilty.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
