@JoeBurgerGP Why is SARS not looking into Paul Mashatile? Or are you?

@Hills007 Likewise. The time has come for them to be kicked to the curb. Not a day goes by without news of corruption by the ANC thugs, the latest being Paul Mashatile and his mind boggling properties while our people still live in shacks and abject poverty. Am beyond pissed off.

@SimphiweTwala53 I truly hate what is going on in this country. It’s all thanks to @MYANC-led government.

@Dijosti Paul Mashatile being a multi-millionaire without owning a single factory tells you one thing that ANC politicians are all there for self-enrichment using state resources. He has been Gauteng MEC for Finance at a salary of R184 000pm.

@Ndgwah Paul Mashatile needs to be arrested for money laundering, fraud, racketeering etc and lies.

@NTyrAvaragej Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Did Paul Mashatile own that residence when she AirBnB/was on holiday….

@MzamoDudula At the very least, Paul Mashatile must show us he’s been living below his means. We can’t ignore the fact that politicians are people too with teams advising them on how to legally (or cleverly) manipulate systems. The real outcry isn’t just the lifestyle it’s that politicians are thriving while public services are crumbling.

@TumzRC Has there ever been good news about Paul Mashatile.

@DanCoderonAir Paul Mashatile used to stay at Edwin Sodi’s luxury Clifton mansion, and now has at least two mansions of his own worth over R65m. How? From what business exactly? His deputy presidential salary is nothing compared to these numbers.

@NicOMilan News24 wants Paul Mashatile outta here.

@Lebona_Cabonena Paul Mashatile network: Deputy president’s sons, friends raked in R49m for Gauteng tender.

@NolwaziNkomo5 Paul Mashatile is the next President of the ANC. 24%is loading.
