|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 25 June 2026 | Inclusion source | Verified for listing | Listed as mayor or executive mayor in the South Africa Municipal Leadership dataset. | OpenSanctions Municipal Leadership dataset | Medium | 0 |
| 2024-04-10 | Cleared or contextualised matter | Municipal pollution conviction and fine retained as context | The Citizen reported that Govan Mbeki municipality accepted a court-imposed R200 million fine after the municipality was found guilty on environmental pollution counts, and quoted mayor Nhlakanipho Zuma accepting the court outcome. This is retained as context because the finding is against the municipality, relates to an institutional offence period, and does not establish a personal conviction or finding against Zuma. | The Citizen report on Govan Mbeki pollution fine | Medium | 0 |
Methodology note
Integrity Index uses a risk-score model where higher scores indicate higher publicly documented integrity risk. For the Mayors page, the first publication establishes the full mayoral roster and profile framework. Evidence scores are only added when a source-linked item has been reviewed against the published Scoring Criteria and Scoring Sources pages.
