As a South African, this is good news (it would have been nice if the payment was higher and more people at McKinsey were held accountable). Unfortunately we are unlikely to see accountability locally for whoever actually paid this bribe. The background is that this was part of the program of State Capture enabled by our former president (Jacob Zuma) and a very dubious family from India: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gupta_family. Our country was basically sold to the highest bidder - people speak of 'ten lost years'.
