EFF provincial chairperson Vusi Khoza told Independent Media that the alleged fraudulent activities started after the councillors were sworn in after the 2016 local government elections.

Durban - The EFF in KwaZulu-Natal said it is pursuing fraud and corruption charges against five of its former councillors in eThekwini Municipality who were expelled from the party on allegations that they embezzled party constituency funds.

“We are talking in the region of about R480 000 which was constituency money that came from the eThekwini council meant to be handed over to the party, but it was diverted to their personal accounts. Khoza said the alleged fraudulent activities started after the councillors were sworn in after the 2016 local government elections.

Khoza was among eight EFF members who were sworn in as MPLs at the provincial legislature in Pietermaritzburg on Wednesday. Previously the party had him and former provincial chairperson Vukani Ndlovu as MPLs, but Ndlovu was not nominated to return to Parliament.“He is still an active member of the EFF as he was not in the party because of the deployment.

Makana: Gift of the Givers knew 'risks' in doing water work for Makhanda | IOL NewsThe Makana Local Municipality in the Eastern Cape said that Gift of the Givers had undertaken to do work entirely 'on risk' in water scarce Makhanda. Dis nou wat n mens n gegewe perd in die bek kyk noem. Obviously the R10 mil already has a boss. A cadre boss. Gift of the Givers discovered water and the government is now stealing their discovery, just like they are stealing your taxes and land. Of course they knew the risks,but the pullout is not about not being paid but rather the payment of 'local suppliers' for work done by GiftoftheGivers ... it's about principal of the matter.
