SocialPro, a key contributor to Sizekhaya’s winning lottery bid, has accused Sizekhaya and Goldrush of governance breaches, non-payment, intellectual property misuse and attempts to alter the pre-launch marketing budget without notifying the National Lotteries Commission. Goldrush and Sizekhaya reject all allegations, insisting SocialPro had no post-award contract, was paid for all bid-stage work, and is now raising complaints in retaliation for not being appointed going forward. The escalating dispute has reached both the minister of trade, industry and competition and the commission.
