Investigation into Kouga corruption

The MEC for Local Government and Traditional Affairs, Mr Sicelo Gqobana, recently held talks with Kouga residents’ and ratepayers’ associations about a long list of grievances against the Kouga Municipality.  It ranged from poor service delivery to corruption, the Our Times of 5 November 2010 reported.

Gqobana instructed various members of his staff to investigate these allegations and to provide reports by 25 November 2010. It was also reported that concerns about corruption in the municipality are currently being looked into by a special investigation unit.
  • The JBRPA is pleased to learn about these developments. This enquiry will hopefully dispel many ratepayers’ fears that local municipal officials do not have the will to deal with wrongdoing in their ranks.
