A recruitment programme touted by local influencers promises jobs and training. The only condition: relocation to Russia. But as young women prepare to uproot their lives in the name of opportunity, suspicion flourishes. Influencers marketing the programme admit they have no idea what the recruits will be doing overseas. When a public outcry accuses them of participating in human trafficking, they delete the posts and issue public apologies. Government issues a stern warning against the programme. But who is really behind the drive to recruit young South African women to Russia? Carte Blanche investigates. www.dstv.com

It’s a relatively new crime trend relying on an age-old method of relieving victims of their valuables: pickpocketing. But in this version it’s not a wallet or watch the thieves are after. It’s a crime playing out in shopping malls and old age homes in which the wily perpetrators don’t know what loot they'll walk – or drive – away with.

66 hours. 5 days. One of my most challenging edits yet—not because the cut was overly complex, but because every second counted to meet the broadcast deadline.
This Carte Blanche story took us deep into a deadly police shooting on the outskirts of Butterworth in the Eastern Cape. A notorious gangster—infamous for drug dealing and extortion—was killed in a hail of police bullets on the side of the N2. But alongside him, four private security guards also died. Police claim it was a shootout. That the suspects carried illegal weapons. But the families of the guards insist they were innocent.
We combed through the video evidence, tracked down eyewitnesses, and pieced together the sequence of events to ask one haunting question: Who’s really telling the truth?

As South African doctors leave in droves, the future of public healthcare hangs in the balance. With a collapsing healthcare system, job shortages, and the controversial NHI plan pushing medical professionals abroad, the question is—can we afford to lose more?

Meanwhile, even in wealthy nations like Ireland, a dual healthcare system still leaves 20% of the population waiting for specialized care.

Neurosurgery is a highly specialised medical discipline and with just a handful of neurosurgeons in South Africa, these doctors are part of an elite inner circle. So, when a high-powered international surgeon from the United States arrived in South Africa, many of his colleagues welcomed him into the fold. But not long after he started practising, alarm bells were raised about his work. In November last year, a 19-year-old underwent an operation to clip a blood clot in his brain. For an experienced neurosurgeon, this was a routine procedure. But for reasons that remain unclear, this surgeon allegedly clipped the main blood supply to the young patient’s brain. In an investigation spanning two continents, Carte Blanche investigates how a disgraced doctor from the US was permitted to yield a scalpel in operating theatres in Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal, endangering the lives of his patients. www.dstv.com

This story originally aired on 21 April 2024. Shauwn Mkhize is a flamboyant, high-flying businesswoman and soccer boss from KwaZulu-Natal who was once at the centre of allegations of fraud and tax evasion. MaMkhize secured much of her wealth from multiple government tenders to build low-cost housing in the province. Despite being found guilty of fraud in 2005, she doesn’t take kindly to being called a convicted fraudster – something Carte Blanche did in a previous episode. In February this year, we investigated Msunduzi Municipality’s multi-million rand sponsorship of Mkhize’s PSL football club, Royal AM. Days later, Mkhize filed court papers, saying the label “convicted fraudster” was false and defamatory and insisting her record is clean. But, right after our legal papers had been filed, she withdrew the case.

But in the Buffalo City Metropolitan Municipality, home to one of the province’s biggest cities, the priority seems to be multi-million rand vanity projects that have become a financial drain on the municipality’s coffers. Despite being cash-strapped, the municipality established a development agency tasked with boosting tourism and economic development; an agency that is now cashing in on major projects funded by the municipality and its ratepayers. In East London, what should’ve been a world-class beachfront upgrade has disintegrated into nothing more than a glorified “stoep”, while the bill for the Waterworld Fun Park revamp has ballooned to an eye-watering R120 million.

AND WITH THAT....
2023 COMES TO A END

Dec 2023

As the curtain falls on 2023, I find myself in awe of the journey this year has taken me on. It began with the loss of a long-standing project, client and friendships that had been woven into the fabric of my professional life for over seven years. The challenge that unfolded was daunting, but as the saying goes, "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger."

Among the highlights of this transformative year were my experiences with The Kilimanjaro Marathon and Victoria Falls Marathon, a yearly highlight. Serving as part of the film crew, handling media management responsibilities, and ensuring the quality check of the final product for broadcast on SuperSport brought a unique sense of accomplishment. Producing a series for META Africa and quality-checking and submitting for broadcast "The Secret Rugby Lives Of..." series for BrightRock were tasks that I embraced with enthusiasm. A partnership with Remembrance allowed us to embark on a series of testimonies, aiming to uplift and inspire faith in viewers. Dabbling in logo design was a creative endeavor that added a colorful twist to my skill set. However, not every venture ended on a high note. A hard lesson was learned when, despite playing a pivotal role in securing a broadcasting contract and implementing significant cost savings, circumstances led me to part ways with a project.
On a brighter note, the majority of my time was dedicated to editing 18 Carte Blanche stories, covering a spectrum of topics that captivated and challenged me in equal measure.

As I look back, I see a tapestry woven with threads of resilience, creativity, and the unwavering pursuit of excellence. The setbacks were not roadblocks but stepping stones, and each challenge was an opportunity to learn and grow. Here's to a year of lessons, victories, and the promise of an even more remarkable journey ahead.

At just 18 months old, a routine evening turned into a life-threatening emergency that led to surgery removing a significant portion of his bowel. However, the ordeal took an unprecedented turn when Matteo's heart stopped on the operating table, repeating this alarming pattern multiple times within 24 hours. Despite doctors' warnings of severe brain damage, Matteo's parents clung to hope. Now, over a year later, Matteo defies all odds, showcasing a thriving recovery and remarkable neurological progress.

ROLE: Editor

This story originally aired on 26 November 2023. In a quiet, isolated village in the Eastern Cape, nurses prepare for the day shift at a local clinic. Tholeni near Gcuwa in the Eastern Cape is one of the most impoverished villages in the area - unemployment is high and most families rely on grants for survival. But last year, even the government-sponsored social relief and food parcels couldn’t save seven children from Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM). The children died within three months of each other. Theirs are the tragic faces of an under-reported and existential crisis in the country’s poorest regions: kwashiorkor, a painful condition often affecting children starved of proper nutrition. In South Africa, among the two wealthiest countries on the continent, around 15 000 children required hospitalisation because of the condition. It’s a crisis of hunger that’s spread throughout the country and government seems powerless to respond. www.dstv.com

These devices offer thousands of hours of content at a fraction of the cost, attracting consumers seeking a budget-friendly alternative. However, connecting these devices to your home Wi-Fi network comes with significant risks.

ROLE: Editor

This story originally aired on 17 December 2023. In September, a South African lion farmer sent a shipment of ten healthy lions to the East Asian country of Laos – a sale that raised the alarm for animal activists. In Laos, tigers have been hunted to extinction, but their body parts are still in high demand in traditional medicine and used in a fine wine. But with the supply in the tiger bone market shrinking, alternatives are being sought in South Africa. Activists believe that the shipment of lions was destined to be killed to feed the country’s growing tiger bone industry. It’s a complex story where lion bones are used to supplement the tiger bone market. But was the farmer aware that the shipment of lions would be killed in Laos? Carte Blanche investigates and what we find, suggests that these lions were deliberately sent to their deaths. www.dstv.com

This story originally aired on 5 November 2023. They say no good deed goes unpunished. That was almost the case for a group of Carte Blanche viewers who had rolled up their sleeves to help disabled children at the state-run Ikwezi Lokusa Special School in the Eastern Cape. In September this year, our investigation exposed gross negligence and human rights violations at the boarding school, with vulnerable children left to fend for themselves. It was a story that moved many of our viewers into action, arranging trucks full of donations for the children. But when it was time to deliver, the volunteers were locked out of the school while the provincial Department of Education did nothing to intervene. But we could not let these children - who have been through so much - be deprived yet again. www.dstv.com

ROLE: Editor

This story originally aired on 17 September 2023. In 2014, Eastern Cape lawyer, Zuko Nonxuba, allegedly set into motion a sinister plan to defraud the desperate families of children with severe disabilities. It's claimed he pilfered millions in medical payouts from the Department of Health by manipulating the mothers of children born with cerebral palsy and pocketing the millions meant for their care. It’s a legal scandal that went on for years while the Legal Practice Council (LPC) – the profession’s statutory oversight body - looked on. Now, the Constitutional Court has finally ruled on Nonxuba’s suspension and, inspired by our investigation, some of South Africa’s top legal minds have come together to fight for the children. As Nonxuba finally gets his comeuppance, Carte Blanche puts the failings of the LPC under the spotlight. www.dstv.com

PRESENTER: Govan Whittles
ROLE: Editor

This story originally aired on 3 September 2023. It was once a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to the care of children with disabilities and a beacon of hope in the Eastern Cape. For decades, Ikwezi Lokusa was operated by missionary sisters. But in 2001, government took over and soon afterwards its troubles began. In 2018, Carte Blanche investigated the boarding school and uncovered how the infrastructure had deteriorated, leaving children to sleep on brick beds with only a thin mattress for comfort. A critical shortage of caregivers often left vulnerable special needs children with no one to feed them or change their nappies for hours on end. Back then, the Department of Education made big promises to help the children; but as we return to the school five years later, very little has changed. More caregivers have been employed, but they frequently abandon the children, who continue to suffer hardship and neglect. Carte Blanche investigates.www.dstv.com

But in the last few years, fear and desperation have forced her to take to her neighbourhood’s streets on the lookout for the illegal miners who are terrorising the community.

In their single-minded pursuit of gold, the zama zamas are digging right outside office parks and homes. Explosions and shootings are regular events, and blanket-wrapped bodies have been found next to the freeway.

This story originally aired on 2 April 2023. In December 2015, investigative journalist, Sabelo Skiti, stumbled upon a story about a well-known lawyer in the Eastern Cape claiming to be fighting the good fight for children born with disabilities in the province’s poorer communities. He was helping them take the Department of Health to court for medical negligence with the multi-million-rand pay-outs offering a chance of a better life. Trouble was the lawyer was stealing the money meant for the mostly semi-literate mothers of children living with cerebral palsy. Greedy and unrepentant, he exploited their desperation without ever intending for them to see a cent of their pay-outs. Skiti’s story prompted the Special Investigating Unit to take a closer look and yet, seven years later, the rogue lawyer continues to slither from their clutches. www.dstv.com

It alleges the criminality, that has largely brought the utility to its knees, is controlled by four powerful cartels and that at least two high-ranking members of the Cabinet are involved. If true, the report is proof of corruption on an unprecedented scale that has plunged the country into darkness and threatens the unravelling of the political establishment.

After multiple visits to the doctor, the diagnosis was shocking - Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA). Arthritis is an autoimmune disease often only associated with the elderly. It’s painful and so debilitating that some patients struggle to walk without assistance. This is the harsh reality for children suffering with JIA. Expensive though it may be, JIA is treatable.

CLIENT: LAERSKOOL UNIKA

Unika's First-Ever Movie Production
In the wake of COVID-19, uncertainty loomed over whether another lockdown would disrupt school events. But Unika wasn't about to let that stop them.

In a historic first, the school transformed their annual production into a full-fledged movie—ensuring that, no matter what, the show would go on.

What an honor to be part of this project! From the visionary teachers to the talented students, this production was a testament to creativity, perseverance.
Each class performed a choreographed dance to a selected song, with the teachers seamlessly carrying the narrative between performances - resulting in 1 hour and 39 minutes of pure entertainment.

Directed, filmed, and edited by:
Mias Steenberg
Written by: Marista van Eeden
Co-Directed by: Chanel Boshoff
Executive Producers:
Dr. Etienne Venter, Elna van Zyl, Louise Olivier, Chanel Boshoff, Hanri Fouchee, Ruan Benadie, Cherlene Fourie
Cast:
A phenomenal team of young stars and passionate educators who made this film possible.

A special shoutout to Ronaldo Silvestre, my trusted Camera A operator, and all who poured their heart into this production.

Fortunately, lockdown never returned, and instead of a virtual premiere, we rolled out the red carpet for an unforgettable experience. Seeing the students' hard work come to life on the big screen was nothing short of magic.

THE KILIMANJARO MARATHON - HIGHLIGHTS

The latest video

The Kilimanjaro Premium Lager Marathon, born in 2002 from a casual brainstorm over Kilimanjaro Lager, has evolved into a powerhouse event for Tanzania. Conceived by Wild Frontiers, the marathon aimed to blend sport with tourism, leveraging the iconic Kilimanjaro as its backdrop to attract global runners. In 2024, the event celebrated its 22nd year, a testament to its enduring appeal and the steadfast support of sponsors and athletes alike.

Initially modest, the inaugural race in 2003 drew a mix of international and local runners, numbering around 300 to 400 participants. Villagers curiously watched as runners navigated dirt roads, goats in tow, with timekeeping managed manually—a far cry from today's bustling event.

From its humble beginnings offering a full marathon, half marathon, and 10 km race, the marathon has expanded significantly. Today, it includes a Fun Run that caters to families and beginners, transforming the race day into a community celebration.

Central to its success are sponsors like Kilimanjaro Premium Lager, whose contributions have catapulted the event into a global spectacle. The marathon serves as a proving ground for Tanzania's rising stars in athletics, while also attracting top international talent. Participants from 45 nations converge annually, making it a truly international affair that transcends borders.

Beyond its athletic prowess, the marathon is a catalyst for economic growth and healthier lifestyles across Tanzania. Sponsors integrate Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives, amplifying the event's impact on local communities and the national economy.

Looking ahead to 2025, organizers promise an even more thrilling experience, with plans to enhance both the lead-up to the event and race day itself. They encourage participation and engagement through social media, fostering a global dialogue around this flagship Tanzanian event.

In essence, the Kilimanjaro Premium Lager Marathon is not just a race but a cultural phenomenon—a testament to Tanzania's spirit of innovation and the enduring allure of Kilimanjaro.

RUNNING FOR HOPE: BONGOZOZO AT THE KILIMANJARO MARATHON 2025

APR 2025

ROLE: Producer & Editor

From the foot of Kilimanjaro… with a heart set on something far greater than the finish line.
On 23 February 2025, Bongozozo crossed the finish line of his 6th Kilimanjaro Marathon — but this time, he ran for more than just the medal.
This was his second time running in support of Tumaini La Maisha, an incredible organisation offering life-saving cancer treatment to children in Tanzania.
I had the privilege of putting together this short video to help share his story and mission—a small pro bono contribution from my side to a cause that deserves every bit of spotlight.
Every step Bongozozo took was for hope. For healing. For the future of our children.
The race may be done, but the mission continues.

THE VICTORIA FALLS MARATHON - HIGHLIGHTS

The latest video

The Econet Victoria Falls Marathon, established in 2005 by Wild Frontiers, has evolved into a premier event on the African running calendar. Initially conceived through local partnerships amidst economic challenges, the marathon has grown substantially over the years. By 2010, economic improvements allowed for expanded participation and sponsorship, solidifying its place as a significant sporting and cultural event.

The marathon's unique allure lies in its scenic route, starting with a breathtaking crossing of the Victoria Falls Bridge from Zimbabwe into Zambia. Participants traverse a World Heritage Site, offering glimpses of wildlife such as elephants amid stunning landscapes. Beyond the race, Victoria Falls provides a backdrop rich in safari adventures and outdoor activities, enhancing the event's appeal to global participants.

During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the organizers innovated with the Vic Falls Virtual Marathon, enabling worldwide participation and maintaining community engagement despite travel restrictions. This adaptation underscored the marathon's resilience and global reach.

Supported by Zimbabwe's leading companies, the marathon not only promotes physical fitness but also stimulates economic growth in the region. It serves as a catalyst for corporate social responsibility initiatives and has catalyzed a broader fitness culture within Zimbabwe and neighboring countries.

Looking ahead, the Econet Victoria Falls Marathon is poised to further establish itself as a premier destination marathon, reflecting its remarkable journey from humble beginnings to international acclaim.
