ATM welcomes Home Affairs’ findings into Adetshina’s mum

The African Transformation Movement (ATM) says all those implicated in alleged fraud in the Home Affairs Department must be held accountable.

This follows the department’s preliminary findings after its investigation into the citizenship of Chidimma Adetshina.

Home Affairs Minister Dr. Leon Schreiber yesterday announced that they had reasons to believe that Adetshina’s mother may have committed fraud and identity theft.

He says that the Miss SA pageant finalist could not have participated in her mother’s alleged unlawful actions as she was an infant when they happened in 2001.

The ATM has welcomed the department’s preliminary findings.

The party’s spokesperson Zama Ntshona says, “One of the questions we asked was the issue of how the parents or the origins of the parents in terms of where they were born, how they entered the country, how they acquired their citizenship.”

“And in this preliminary reports, there seems to be a preliminary finding that points to an answer. The only thing we are asking from the department, is that the department must probe further and give us a fuller picture of what actually transpired.”- Reporting by Diteboho Ntimane.
