Prosecutors in Botswana alleged that Motsepe-Radebe was a co-signatory to accounts that received $10 billion stolen from the country.
Bridgette Motsepe-Radebe is setting the record straight on Thursday morning on allegations that she was involved in a plot to topple Botswana President Mokgweetsi Masisi, who will be inaugurated on Friday following elections in that country.
Businesswoman Bridgette Motsepe-Radebe is set to break her silence on allegations that she had an affair with Ian Khama; he denied this and accused his successor Mokgweetsi Masisi of fabricating the story.
South Africa and Botswana had to mend relations after a telephone conversation in which Radebe was accused of hatching a plot to unseat Masisi was leaked and Botswana slapped her with a travel ban.
The portfolio committee on mineral resources and energy on Wednesday hosted an engagement session with organisations in the mining and energy sectors.
Last week, the founder and chairman of African Rainbow Minerals took legal action against a Botswana-based publication, demanding R6.7 million in damages after it ran a story on the allegation.
South African businesswoman Bridgette Radebe will now have to apply for a visa to visit the country, where she has mining interests.
