GIFA withdraws from controversial Lesedi Aerodrome Project
17 February 2021
The Democratic Alliance (DA) has learnt that the Gauteng Infrastructure Financing Agency (GIFA) has now withdrawn from the Lesedi Aerodrome Project, although they have signed a MOU with Lesedi for this project in 2019.
The information was revealed during a recent Finance Portfolio Committee meeting by the CEO of GIFA, OupaSeabe.
According to the CEO, GIFA was dealing with the Lesedi Aerodrome Project but when the Lesedi Local Municipality advertised the project with flimsy terms of references, the GIFA withdrew. Further to this, the CEO also indicated that this was irregular and the GIFA did not want to be part of it because they knew it would result in a bad product.
