COSATU TO FILE CORRUPTION CHARGES AGAINST THE DA

COSATU will be filling corruption charges against the DA for spending public funds on their friends in wealthy areas when there is such a desperate need for services in poor communities.

COSATU has been made aware that influential DA officials live in Milnerton Blaauberg area and that this is the reason why the bicycle lanes were built in that area. This amounts to corruption in our view because the DA had promised to deliver services to the poor and had instead focussed on the wealthy ex-white areas.

The non compliance with election promises amounts to fraud and fraudulent behaviour is also a form of corruption.

COSATU will be calling on the South African police to investigate these allegations and to bring criminal charges against the perpetrators in the DA and the City Administration.
