Provincial State Bank and Pharmacy: another failed promise by Premier Lesufi
4 July 2023
Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi is all talk and no action, to the detriment of the residents of this province, who are still waiting for an update about the progress of the Provincial State Bank and Pharmacy.
During his State of the Province Address (SOPA), Lesufi announced that a Provincial State Bank and Pharmacy would be established.
The Democratic Alliance (DA) tabled questions in the Gauteng Provincial Legislature (GPL) to the MEC for Finance, Jacob Mamabolo, regarding the progress in establishing a Provincial State Bank and Pharmacy.
However, the MEC has asked for an extension to reply to our questions until 30 June 2023. This deadline has come and gone, and we are still waiting for the reply to our questions.
