Investigative journalist Modibe Modiba’s allegations about corruption in Ekurhuleni have resurfaced as the Madlanga Commission hears testimony that echoes several of his earlier claims. Modiba has publicly alleged systemic wrongdoing in the metro, including irregular multi-billion-rand tenders, criminal infiltration of the EMPD, whistle-blower intimidation, and even the killing of a municipal auditor. He maintains that his exposés—once dismissed—align with emerging evidence, though the matters remain under investigation and unproven.
