After media reports last week revealed that
the Democratic Alliance received donations from the Gupta family, the DA Leader
Helen Zille denied the reports.
DA Chief Executive Officer Jonathan Moakes
said the party received donations from Stephen Nel in his own capacity.
Moakes explains that Nel has confirmed that
the donations were made in his personal capacity.
Moakes furthermore said that a further
donation was made in 2010 from a company called Island sight investment
and those are the facts as is stated.
Moakes said there is nothing wrong with a
political party receiving donations from a corporate or an individual.
However Moakes said what is wrong is when favours
are sought for donations that are given but that is not the case here by any sketch
of the imagination.
