It was also revealed that R3 million was offered to kill Buhlungu’s deputy, Professor Renuka Vithal.
The state further alleged that the hitmen pocketed R350 000 for killing Roets, who was shot dead near his home in Gonubie in May 2022 on his way home from the university’s Alice campus.Meanwhile, the Special Investigation Unit is currently investigating allegations of corruption and maladministration at the university,
The investigation, which was authorised by President Cyril Ramaphosa in August last year, is focusing particularly on four tender contracts and the awarding of post-graduate degrees for personal gain. Eastern Cape Premier Oscar Mabuyane has since approached the Bhisho High Court, challenging the SIU’s investigation pertaining to him.Mabuyane had initially intended to ask the high court to declare Ramaphosa’s request for the SIU investigation unlawful and invalid.and now only intends to interdict the SIU from investigating him specifically.
The university deregistered Mabuyane in 2021 on allegations the premier was registered irregularly by controversial Professor Edwin Ijeoma for a Master’s degree despite only having a BCom degree.
