MPs and ministers are obliged to make a declaration of their interests including gifts valued at R500 or more, properties, pensions and shares

From Rwandan art crafts and a pilchards hamper, to bottles of whiskey and wine and smartphones, those are just some of the gifts MPs declared in the 2019 register of members’ interest, the most recent record of parliamentarians’ financial interests.

In his declaration, finance minister Tito Mboweni listed various gifts including Rwandan art with a value of more than R1,500. The minister has consistently declared his love for Rwanda for its cleanliness, efficient governance and innovative use of public resources. Communications minister Stella Ndabeni-Abrahams disclosed a cellphone gift from Chinese phone maker, Huawei, worth between R11,000 and R16,000.

Malema’s deputy, Floyd Shivambu, had nothing much to disclose, only revealing that he had received a “conference pack” of unknown value from the National Association of Democratic Lawyers.
