When Athol Williams reported his employer, Bain & Co., for withholding information on their complicity in State capture, he had no idea how far-reaching their collusion had been.
Drawing on his testimony before the Zondo Commission, Williams reveals the full extent of what Bain did not want the public to know. Not only did Bain withhold information and witnesses from the authorities; they also attempted to buy Williams’s silence and block his Zondo testimony.
He uncovers the inner workings of state capture design and takes us into the evidence revealing the after-hours planning meetings that took place at Jacob Zuma’s residences – who was present and what was discussed. Not only does the book expose greed and corporate corruption and lifts the lid on foreign profiteering, it also highlights the lonely burden of the whistleblower and the great personal cost of telling the truth in the face of overwhelming pressure.
