Shell denies greasing ANC palms
By Tony Carnie: 20 August 2015
Durban – Oil giant Shell has denied suggestions that it exercises “improper influence” over government officials or makes financial payments to the ANC to pave the way for shale gas fracking.
The company’s local subsidiary, Shell South Africa, was responding on Wednesday to fears raised by local anti-fracking groups in a letter to the Minister of Mineral Resources, Ngoako Ramatlhodi.
The Treasure of the Karoo Action group and AfriForum wrote to Ramatlhodi this week voicing concern that he would be caught in a conflict of interest by adjudicating any application from Shell for a petroleum exploration licence or right.
The TRUTH will set you FREE.
