Sisulu’s Covid-19 Water Scheme ends up to be a ’dry run’ exercise - DA request SCOPA to investigate
20 May 2020
The Minister of Human Settlements, Water and Sanitation, Lindiwe Sisulu has failed to address water shortages in communities all over the country.
The delivery of 17 000 water tanks at a cost of more than R300 million to vulnerable communities is nothing but wasteful expenditure when these tanks are not filled regularly and consistently.
The Minister in her own words called on all of us to “rally around the government’s call to wash our hands frequently in order for us to defeat the scourge of Covid-19.”
But how can we do that if we do not have access to clean water?
