A South African lottery licence bid is under scrutiny, with the winner denying links to Deputy President Paul Mashatile and a rival challenging the award in court.
The winning bidder in South Africa’s lottery licence auction, Sizekhaya consortium, denies allegations linking Deputy President Paul Mashatile to the bid, calling them unfounded gossip.
The consortium says no legal breaches occurred, as the Lotteries Act only prohibits direct financial interests, not indirect ties like those through Mashatile’s sister-in-law.
Losing bidder Ithuba Lottery is challenging the award in court, citing irregularities, with hearings set for October 28–30, 2025.
The National Lotteries Commission and Minister Park Tau confirm an ongoing investigation but affirm the process remains valid.
