MBABANE:Ncamiso Ngcamphalala, an alleged State spy and former President of the Economic Freedom Fighters(EFF) Swaziland is now financially broke after the landlord evicted and forced him to close his Car Wash at Ezulwini.
Financial challenges for Ngcamphalala started when the Eswatini Water Services Corporation(EWSC) caught him ‘stealing’ water by illegally connecting pipes,the water supply was subsequently closed.He then purchased a water tank and could not afford to pay the water and fill-up as he has been running the business with free water and funding.
It has been disclosed that, Ngcamphalala’s Car Wash was established with monies facilitated by former Deputy Prime Minister(DPM) Themba Nhlanganiso Masuku,a building material was allegedly sourced at Build-it Mbabane under King’s Interpreter Sihle Dlamini’s account.
While business was booming, Ngcamphalala’s was seen in videos drinking expensive alcohol and insulting political activists,at some point, an effort was made to source money from the Youth Fund to assist Ngcamphalala who was struggling to manage the business and would spend the money on alcohol and young women while neglecting to pay rent and salaries for employees.
On Tuesday (05 December 2023) the former EFF President was selling some of his remaining properties including a Water Tank,this was after the land-lord evicted him for failing to pay rent.
Information gathered suggests that, Ngcamphalala was engaged to create an online publication and counter the independent media that was seen to be promoting democracy, however,it has been disclosed that, his funders that include Sihle Dlamini and Themba Nhlanganiso Masuku concluded that, he was not effective.
The closure of the Car Wash comes at the time when efforts were being made to award Ngcamphalala a contract worth one hundred thousand Rands(R100,000.00) through an entity linked to the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Trade, sources close to the matter told this publication that, he was told to register the company.
“We will update you if they eventually grant him the job worth R100,000.00”, said the insider.
Reached for comments on Wednesday afternoon,the former EFF President said,it was not true that his Ezulwini Car Wash has been closed.
“Who told you this information,it’s not true, as we speak, we are here operating,” he said.
Both former Deputy Prime Minister Themba Nhlanganiso Masuku and King’s Interpreter Sihle Dlamini had not responded at the time of compiling this report.
On another note, it has been disclosed that, the Car Wash has been non-operational for almost a month now, the Eswatini Water Services Corporation(EWSC) who allegedly assisted Ngcamphalala to illegally connect the water was given a warning and ordered by his superiors to disconnect the pipes with immediate effect.
Even though Ngcamphalala claimed that, the Car Wash was functional,this publication managed to take fresh pictures on Tuesday afternoon,a Water Tank was purchased on that day.
It remains unclear if the State will fund Ngcamphalala, the alleged spy to start another business.
State alleged spy ex-EFF Swaziland President Ncamiso Ngcamphalala’s Ezulwini Car Wash closed,former DPM Themba Masuku and King’s Interpreter Sihle Dlamini’s monies wasted.
