Tribunal Orders Anele Mdoda’s Husband to Repay Over R14 Million in PPE Contracts The Special Tribunal has ordered Bonelela “Buzza” Mgudlwa, husband of Anele Mdoda, and his business partner Katleho Mokonyane, daughter of ANC First Deputy SG Nomvula Mokonyane, to repay more than R14 million linked to irregular COVID-19 PPE contracts. In a judgment delivered on 25 March 2026, Judge David Makhoba ruled that two contracts awarded to their company, Tark Group Pty Ltd, by the Mpumalanga Department of Health were unlawful, constitutionally invalid, and void from the outset. The tribunal found that procurement processes were bypassed and that the company failed to meet key compliance requirements. The Special Investigating Unit (SIU) revealed that the department paid over R14.3 million for medical jumpsuits and surgical masks, despite the supplier lacking proper accreditation at the time and failing to disclose potential conflicts of interest. In a significant move, the tribunal pierced the corporate veil, holding both Mgudlwa and Mokonyane personally liable after finding they acted fraudulently and dishonestly in securing and executing the contracts. They have been ordered to repay the full amount, forfeit any profits, and cover the SIU’s legal costs. The case forms part of the SIU’s broader efforts to recover public funds lost through irregular procurement during the COVID-19 pandemic. No criminal charges have been announced in relation to this matter.
