The auction took place in an auction house belonging to the statesman, and heavy prices were paid by some of the richest animal breeders in the country.

Motsepe who is Ramaphosa’s brother-in-law is a well known South African mining magnate Patrice Motsepe and executive chairperson of African Rainbow Minerals. He was also on a spending spree this weekend.
