DA Starts Oilgate Campaign
The DA is starting a 10 day campaign today to draw attention to the Oilgate scandal, which saw BEE company Imvume donate R11 million of the R15 million it was given to buy oil condensate to the ANC prior to the 2004 elections (the donation also bankrupted the company and caused PetroSA, who would have bought the condensate, to pay twice for the same product from it’s suppliers).
To date there has been no inquiry, no resignations and no consequences over what seems to be some highly irregular goings on. Each day the DA is going to release a new statement pertaining to a certain aspect of the scandal and they’re kicking it off today with a statement over the lack of a commission of enquiry.
Over the next nine days the following will be subjects of the next nine statements:- The Promotion of Access to Information Act
- The ANC
- The Minerals and Energy portfolio committee
- SCOPA and the Auditor-General
- The Public Protector
- The Director-General in the Presidency
- The National Prosecuting Authority
- The Deputy President
- Other
