"description": "Daily Maverick is an independent online news publication and weekly print newspaper in South Africa.\r\n\r\nIt is known for breaking some of the defining stories of South Africa in the past decade, including the Marikana Massacre, in which the South African Police Service killed 34 miners in August 2012.\r\n\r\nIt also investigated the Gupta Leaks, which won the 2019 Global Shining Light Award.\r\n\r\nThat investigation was credited with exposing the Indian-born Gupta family and former President Jacob Zuma for their role in the systemic political corruption referred to as state capture.\r\n\r\nIn 2018, co-founder and editor-in-chief Branislav ‘Branko’ Brkic was awarded the country’s prestigious Nat Nakasa Award, recognised for initiating the investigative collaboration after receiving the hard drive that included the email tranche.\r\n\r\nIn 2021, co-founder and CEO Styli Charalambous also received the award.\r\n\r\nDaily Maverick covers the latest political and news developments in South Africa with breaking news updates, analysis, opinions and more.",

It’s not that they want him to leave the Finance portfolio – that would cause too much political and economic turmoil to contain. They want Gordhan to realise his place in the political pecking order and to follow the instructions given to him. Hawks boss Berning Ntlemeza is pumping up the pressure against Gordhan so that he commits in writing to what he did and did not know about the alleged spy unit at the South African Revenue Service (SARS). The belief is that this will corner Gordhan and then he will play nicely. Gordhan clearly has other plans. But this is not just a high noon shootout between Gordhan and Ntlemeza.
