Former ANC MP Vytjie Mentor's testimony before the state capture inquiry took yet another hit on Wednesday when one of her colleagues‚ Hlengiwe Mgabadeli‚ said she could not recall Mentor disclosing to her an offer for the public enterprises ministerial post by one of the Gupta brothers.
Mentor previously told the commission that she may have confided in Mgabadeli‚ who previously served as an ANC MP‚ back in 2010 after she was allegedly taken to the Guptas' Saxonwold home.
There‚ Mentor says‚ then-president Jacob Zuma was present and Ajay Gupta offered her the job of public enterprises minister in exchange for doing the family's bidding once she took up the role. "I’ve got nothing against Mentor‚ she's my sister‚ she's my comrade‚ she's my neighbour ... but I just don’t recall her telling me‚" Mgabadeli said.
