Ndabeni-Abrahams pays admission of guilt fine
Communications Minister, Stella Ndabeni-Abrahams has paid an admission of guilt fine for breaking the lockdown regulations.
She was charged for contravening the Disaster Management Act after she was earlier this month photographed having lunch at former deputy higher education minister - Mduduzi Manana's home.
The NPA says investigations revealed that the visit was not for the purposes of providing an essential service or obtaining essential goods.
In a statement - Manana claimed Ndabeni-Abrahams had arrived at his home to collect personal protective equipment saying it was a donation from his foundation.
