DA Calls for Probe into McKenzie's Spending | Johannesburg News

Description

The Democratic Alliance has launched a formal ethics probe into Sport, Arts and Culture Minister Gayton McKenzie, accusing him of misusing public funds — including R110 million in arts grants and R31 million for a FIFA World Cup program — by allegedly stacking the funding panel with his own party’s members and setting the rules himself. The DA argues this breaches the Executive Ethics Code and prioritizes party interests over public good, while the Patriotic Alliance dismisses the complaint as election-driven noise, insisting McKenzie has already cleared all scrutiny and past similar cases found no wrongdoing.
