SUSPENDED Police Minister Senzo Mchunu’s Chief of Staff, Cedrick Nkabinde, says he has no list of the four people who accompanied Northwest businessman and activist Brown Mogotsi to a private briefing with the Minister on the Stilfontein illegal-mining crisis, and insists he never knew who they were.

Testifying before Parliament's ad hoc committee yesterday, Nkabinde said Mchunu had personally instructed him in August 2024, shortly after he took office as chief of staff, to arrange a meeting with Mogotsi and unnamed “local leaders” ahead of a planned ministerial visit to Stilfontein.

He told MPs that “the minister provided me with the contact details of Mr Brown Mogotsi from Northwest” and asked him to secure a briefing on the Zama-Zama situation.

Nkabinde said he contacted Mogotsi immediately, but the Minister's diary was full for August. After further coordination, “the date of the 30th of September 2024 was identified as a possible meeting date based on the minister's availability”.

Mogotsi confirmed he would attend with four others, and the meeting was scheduled for the official residence, said Nkabinde.
