Mapisa-Nqakula denies influencing R80m tender

PRETORIA - Former Defence Minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula has continued to deny soliciting bribes from military contractor Nombasa Ntsondwa-Ndhlovu.

She returned to the High Court in Pretoria, where she faced cross-examination in her corruption trial.

The former Speaker was questioned about her relationship with Ntsondwa-Ndhlovu and she denied she played a role when the businesswoman was awarded an R80-million contract.

Her salary and spending while she was in public office has also come under scrutiny.

She'll be back in court on 22 September.
