One SA Movement leader Mmusi Maimane has criticised DJ Shimza for defending the R15m cost of the controversial Lesseyton sports facility in the Enoch Mgijima municipality in the Eastern Cape.

Maimane tore into the ruling party’s alleged corruption during a media briefing on Wednesday, and called on South Africans to unite against corruption.

“We must unite. The criminals are united and if we are divided, they will keep winning ... The people are hungry, they don’t have jobs. But you know who has everything? The politicians,” said Maimane before reflecting on this “new low of ANC corruption”.
