Why Tau backs Sizekhaya for national lottery licence
Cape Argus
|August 15, 2025
THE Minister of Trade, Industry and Competition, Parks Tau, has publicly defended the controversy surrounding the award of the highly anticipated fourth national lottery licence to Sizekhaya Holdings.
Tau was legally obligated to disclose his reasons for selecting the company in an affidavit, doing so in response to two court challenges requesting a review of the award.
Tau has finally disclosed his reasons for awarding the contract to Sizekhaya citing the consortium's well-balanced bid, impressive technology partners, and high projected revenue as the reasons for its selection.
He also commended Sizekhaya's plans to rejuvenate the suite of current lottery games and its broader marketing plans and spend.
Tau's affidavit, filed in the Gauteng High Court in Pretoria, also reveals that Sizekhaya Holdings "pipped others to the post" due to its impressive bid.
