flag Tshwane officials still can't blacklist Edwin Sodi despite his links to a cholera-causing wastewater failure.

flag Nearly three years after deciding to blacklist tenderpreneur Edwin Sodi and his firms, Tshwane officials have failed to deliver the notice due to unverifiable addresses, despite contacting him via WhatsApp. flag The city’s attempts through mail and police failed, and the National Treasury previously rejected the blacklist request over procedural flaws. flag Sodi, a self-declared ANC ally linked to high-profile politicians, continues to operate his businesses and has secured hundreds of millions in government contracts, including for a failed wastewater project tied to a 2023 cholera outbreak. flag Critics accuse the city’s ANC- and ActionSA-led administration of obstructing the process, raising concerns about accountability in public procurement.
