This book tells the story of how Julius Malema used his growing
political clout to bankroll his party and amass a
personal fortune. It reveals astounding new details about Malema’s
old, seemingly forgotten scandals in Limpopo and how loot
from the VBS Bank found its way to Malema and Shivambu. It shows
the insidious ways in which money courses through South African
politics and how some leaders exploit valid grievances about
inequality to steal from the very people they claim to fight for.

Chilling account of how power and big money are entwined in SA -- essential reading
Wed, 10 Sep 2025 | Review
by: JB Herschelman
This book lays bare how in SA politics became the easiest way to big money by tracing Malema's career from his early days in Limpopo, where fairly unsophisticated methods were employed to gather massive private wealth from the public purse, via the VBS bank loot to the EFF enriching itself in the metro's. Essential reading if you want to understand the malaise we find ourselves in with money and politics in a deadly embrace. Thank you to the authors for meticulously detailing how this rot operates.
