- Title
SOUTH AFRICA.
- Abstract
South Africa's former parliament speaker, Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula, has been charged with corruption and money laundering, adding to the troubles of the African National Congress (ANC) party ahead of the upcoming elections. Mapisa-Nqakula is accused of soliciting bribes during her tenure as defense minister and denies the allegations. In another development, a South African bank has announced a partial freeze on the accounts of ex-president Jacob Zuma, further tarnishing his reputation as he seeks to relaunch his political career. Additionally, a bus crash and deadly fires in Cape Town have resulted in fatalities and displacement, highlighting ongoing safety and housing issues in the country.
