Investigation into irregular expenditure at Emfuleni Municipality long overdue
3 October 2018
The Democratic Alliance (DA) in Gauteng notes the long overdue investigation into the Emfuleni Local Municipality which will look into irregular expenditure amounting to R872 million of the people’s money.
This investigation should have been done a long time ago. This cash-strapped municipality has been plagued by numerous types of mismangment by the failing ANC, including failing to pay its electricity and water bills, leaving the residents of Emfuleni in the lurch.
On several occasions, the DA has called for transparency, good governance and accountability by the failing ANC-led municipality.
The failing ANC, which cares little about the welfare of the Emfuleni residents has used money meant for service delivery to enrich themselves.
