Ever wonder what those shiny logos are hiding? Spoiler: They’re cooking more than just the books.
This week on Politically Aweh, our host KG Mokgadi is diving deep into the messy world of private sector corruption—and trust us, it’s not just government officials having all the shady fun! With help from a “career guidance counsellor” at the South African Institute of Crony Accountants and Other Professionals, we’re spilling the tea on how companies like Steinhoff and Tongaat Hulett cooked their books so well, it’s a miracle they didn’t open their own restaurant chain.
From pension fund robbery to auditing “oopsies”, find out how these corporate crooks pulled off South Africa’s biggest heists—while their auditors turned a blind eye (or maybe two).

A new teacher enters a classroom full of students.
The teacher stands at the front of the room and greets the students, \”Good morning, class.\”
None of the students say anything. One boy at the back of the classroom stands up, \”Good morning, teacher.\”
Puzzled, the teacher carries on. The following morning, the same thing happens. Day after day goes by, and it\’s the same routine.
One morning after greeting the class and the same student standing and greeting, the teacher has had enough, \”Why is it, that every time I walk in and greet the entire room, only you stand up and greet me?\”
In the most broken English, the boy replies, \”Because I are the only one here, what\’s name are Klass\”
