Rise Mzansi wants urgent probe into Mashatile's lifestyle
Updated | By Princess Mahogo
Political newcomers Rise Mzansi believes there is a need for an urgent investigation into the alleged lavish lifestyle of Deputy President Paul Mashatile.

The party’s call follows an exposé by News24 which claimed that Mashatile’s lifestyle is funded by entrepreneurs with government contracts, including corruption-accused Edwin Sodi.
Rise Mzansi’s Mabine Seabe says they wrote to acting Public Protector Kholeka Gcaleka on Tuesday, as allegations of the deputy president being linked to state capture should not be taken lightly.
“At face value, the deputy president has committed serious violations of at least the constitution, his oath of office, and the Executive Members’ Ethics Act.
“The South African political establishment has built a culture of zero accountability, especially when those in power are alleged to be or found to be corrupt or involved in other acts of criminality. The powerful have placed themselves above the law”.
Seabe say if Mashatile is found guilty, he must be held accountable in the same way that any citizen without the backing of public office would be.
