"Lionel Faull began his career as a journalist at the Mail & Guardian newspaper in South Africa before joining the country's pre-eminent non-profit investigations team, amaBhungane, in 2011.
He has been working with Finance Uncovered since January 2017, joining as a full-time senior reporter a year later.
