Why the DA is criminally charging the managers of SA's worst-run municipalities

Municipal managers who bankrupt one town get quietly moved to run the next one. A council was shown proof that R100 million couldn't be accounted for, and chose to protect the man responsible rather than fire him. A docket has sat untouched for a year. And the official now suing DA parliamentary leader George Michalakis for speaking out is, by law, supposed to be politically neutral. Michalakis talks to Alec Hogg about the DA's "terrible ten", why he personally walked into police stations across four provinces to lay the charges, and what it will actually take to see a corrupt official behind bars before South Africans vote on 4 November.
