According to Mufamadi, an agent of SSA testified to the panel that special ops had a project called “Project Commitment”, which he said was meant for the financial upkeep of Zuma, to the tune of millions of rand.
The operation, Mufamadi added, involved cash payments of R25m a month in the 2015/16 financial year, “via” former state security minister David Mahlobo, for the benefit of Zuma.
