Political life

In May 2009, Kopane called for the public protector to investigate allegations that R4.3million of Reconstruction and Development Programme-designated funds had been spent on a pre-election party for President Jacob Zuma, and for food parcels to residents of Zuma's home town on the eve of the 2009 general election. The scandal forced Social Development Minister Edna Molewa to request the Special Investigation Unit to launch an investigation into the KwaZulu-Natal businessman, Mabheleni Ntuli, who had solicited the funds from the South African Social Security Agency.^[5]
