• Mgudlwa and his business partner, Katleho Mokonyane, were reportedly ordered to repay R14 million by the Special Tribunal

Social media is buzzing after Anele Mdoda's husband, Bonelela 'Buzza' Mgudlwa, was ordered to repay millions alongside his business partner, Katleho Mokonyane.

The R14 million is reportedly linked to the COVID-19 PPE contracts, which were awarded during the pandemic.

Why is Anele Mdoda's hubby involved in PPE scandal?

According to MDNnewss, the Special Investigating Unit (SIU) found that the Mpumalanga Department of Health gave Tark Group Pty Ltd two contracts to provide medical jumpsuits and surgical masks.

Judge David Makhoba ruled on 25 March 2026 that the contracts were "unlawfully given to the company, constitutionally invalid, and void from the outset." In addition, the company reportedly failed to meet certain compliance requirements.
