Devi Govender
Award-winning investigative journalist
“I put myself last so that everything else, my husband, children and home are at the top of my list.”
This fierce four foot eight investigative journalist makes grown men quake in their shoes. Devi is well known as a presenter and journalist for Carte Blanche, which she joined in 2002 as their youngest investigative television journalist. The award-winner has gained a reputation for being fearless in her efforts to expose corruption wherever it exists.
She has completed a Post Graduate Diploma in Business Management and an MBA through the University of Natal, and went on to create her own corporate communication’s company. “I knew that when I was confronting somebody on an economics or a financial issue, if I didn’t understand their world, they could easily get away with whatever it was that I was trying to expose.”
