Public Protector finds ex-Free State premier misused state resources in ANC campaign

Public Protector Kholeka Gcaleka has ruled that former Free State premier Sisi Ntombela improperly used state resources when she allocated an RDP house to the wrong beneficiary during an ANC Letsema campaign event. The investigation found a clear violation of the separation between state and party activities, with a R130 000 government-funded house being used to advance party interests. While President Ramaphosa was cleared of wrongdoing, officials have been given strict timelines to rectify the housing allocation and address constitutional violations.
