ANC in eThekwini must explain cancelled R2.1 million conference
21 June 2017
On Monday, the DA requested the City Manager of eThekwini Municipality, Sipho Nzuza, to explain to the municipality's executive council why the R2.1 million Social Cohesion conference that was supposed to take place on Monday was inexplicably cancelled at the last minute?
However, the DA's request was turned down by the ANC, raising further suspicion that the conference was indeed cancelled for political reasons.
The DA remains adamant to determine the reason for the cancellation of the conference and also how much money was wasted in the process.
We therefore wrote to the MEC for Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (CoGTA), Nomusa Dube-Ncube today, requesting that she investigates the circumstances that led to the cancellation of the conference and also establish how the money was spent, on which expenditure items and how the money will be recovered after the late cancellation which left almost 400 delegates stranded.
