After the Hefer, Ginwala, Donen or Ngoepe inquiries, any hope of the Farlam Commission getting to the bottom of the Marikana tragedy is naive at best.

Contrary to reports, Tokyo Sexwale and Kgalema Motlanthe still have a case to answer for the the parts they played in the Oilgate scandal.

Political heavyweights Kgalema Motlanthe and Tokyo Sexwale may be in the clear — but that doesn’t mean no one did anything wrong in the Oilgate saga.

Is it an ambush by scandal on the road to Mangaung or a wise capitulation in the face of a near-certain court defeat?

The timing of President Zuma’s release of the Oilgate report has raised eyebrows, as it is said to implicate his rivals for the ANC presidency.

President Jacob Zuma will release the report on the involvement of South Africans in the Iraq oil-for-food programme in December.

The DA will ask President Jacob Zuma to reconstitute a commission on the role senior government officials played in oil deals with Iraq.

The DA has called for a probe into a report handed to Thabo Mbeki three years ago detailing the alleged knowledge officials had of shady oil deals.
