Former Environmental Affairs Minister Nomvula Mokonyane has hit back at former Bosasa COO Angelo Agrizzi for what she says is his hatred of women.Mokonyane says Agrizzi’s utterances at the Zondo Commission degrade women.

She also says allegations that she took bribes are defamatory and insensitive.

“The submissions that lead to me being here, I find them extremely defamatory, I find them full of contradictions by someone who has had ample time given to him exclusively,” said Mokonyane.

Agrizzi claimed that Mokonyane received bribes of R50,000 a month. Mokonyane is testifying at the State Capture Inquiry.
