Minnie Dlamini is paying back lottery money after an investigation. The actress and media personality settled with the Special Investigating Unit, agreeing to return fifty thousand rand. She received the funds in 2016 through the Mshandukani Foundation, a nonprofit that got millions from the National Lotteries Commission for an Olympic roadshow project.
The SIU probe, authorized by the president, found that the foundation handed out cash to various people without a legal basis. Dlamini cooperated with investigators and admitted the money was not lawfully hers. The recovered amount will go back to the lottery commission. This case is part of a larger crackdown on misuse of public funds from the NLC, with the unit pursuing other recipients.
