Timeline
Nelson was arrested on charges of fraud in August 2019. She is currently out on bail.
In August 2019, Nelson and former Head of Department (HOD) of the provincial Health Department, Thabo Lekalakala, were arrested by the Hawks on fraud charges. Nelson was involved in Lekalakala's irregular appointment. Nelson's arrest was the first significant arrest of a senior government official following the intervention of the national government in the provincial government's affairs. They are both currently out on R20,000 bail. Opposition parties expressed satisfaction over the arrests. The Democratic Alliance Provincial Leader, Joe McGluwa, said that the arrests were "only a drop in the ocean of North West corruption". The African Transformation Movement (ATM) welcomed the arrests.
Premier Supra Mahumapelo announced on 9 May 2018 that he would be taking special leave following violent protests calling for his removal. Nelson was sworn in as acting premier. Her swearing-in generated controversy since Nelson, at that stage, was facing fraud allegations. Mahumapelo officially resigned on 23 May 2018 and Nelson continued in her acting position until Job Mokgoro was elected and sworn in. Nelson was appointed to his Executive Council as the MEC for Tourism and served in the post until she left the provincial government in May 2019.
After the 2014 elections, Nelson took office as a Member of the North West Provincial Legislature. Premier Supra Mahumapelo appointed her as the Member of the Executive Council for Finance, Economy and Enterprise Development.
