The DA has accused Finance Minister Tito Mboweni of misleading South Africans when he gave an assurance two weeks ago that the country would meet the deadline to pay the R500m required to join the Covax vaccine scheme.

Cape Town - The Democratic Alliance has accused Finance Minister Tito Mboweni of misleading South Africans when he gave an assurance two weeks ago that the country would meet the deadline to pay the R500 million required to join the Covax vaccine scheme.

Two weeks ago, Mboweni assured Parliament during the adoption of the Budget that the second deadline to take part in Covax is December 15 and that government would make the payment before then. The country is currently experiencing a second wave of coronavirus infections and already the number of new cases reported daily is climbing at an alarming rate. Experts have warned that this second wave will be worse than the initial outbreak.

“The opacity from the Minister of Finance, the Minister of Health, and indeed from the President, must now end. South Africa needs a full explanation, with all information on the table, and a clear plan and timeline for the Covax rollout. Nothing less than full transparency will suffice,” he said.

DA to lay ethics complaint against Tito Mboweni over Covax paymentThe official opposition on Friday said it would request the ethics committee to investigate Finance Minister Tito Mboweni for allegedly misleading Parliament about the country’s payment to sign up to the global Covax programme. I think it is unethical to sign us up for the untested experimental vaccine for which there is no need. All political parties seem to have sold us out.
