Synopsis

This is the third episode in a series of holiday season repeats. I first interviewed Dipak shortly before the ANC conference of December 2017 that led to Cyril Ramaphosa being appointed as ANC Secretary-General and subsequently the President of South Africa, replacing Jacob Zuma. Since then the government has made various efforts to rehabilitate itself, and various state-owned enterprises blighted by corruption and mismanagement. Earlier this year Dipak was appointed as Special Advisor to Minister of Public Enterprises Pravin Gordhan to assist in rolling-back the impact of state capture.
