Tshwane will commission an independent investigation into allegations surrounding the deputy mayor’s alleged conflict of interest involving a contract awarded to a company previously linked to him.

DA spokesperson for Finance Jacqui Uys said she wrote to the city manager in November 2024, raising concerns over Triotic Protection Services. The party believed taxpayers’ money could be better spent on infrastructure for water and improved technology rather than security guard services. “This raised concerns that Triotic Protection Services might not have had a tax clearance when submitting their bid and, therefore, would not have qualified to be awarded the tender,” said Uys.

“What was known was that Triotic Protection Services was started as a CC by Eugene Thipe Modise with 50% ownership. The company was later converted into a Pty , with Modise as director. Modise remained director until March 1, 2023, just after he became an ANC councillor, when he resigned as director, and the company’s HR manager, Neo Mafodi, was appointed as director,” said Uys.
