'I am totally innocent' - Under fire Ekurhuleni COO denies wrongdoing in parks project after report notes irregularities | tshidi_lee

Embattled City of Ekurhuleni municipality chief operations officer Lesiba Mojapelo has denied any wrongdoing in the handling of the City's Lungile Mtshali Community Development Project, instead suggesting he is being targeted by some of his colleagues after a report noted irregularities in the project.

The report also found that work at eight out of the 13 sites"was of either poor quality and standard or was not performed as claimed on the invoices". This work amounted to R3 776 169.69. Mojapelo said the parks each have a different look because of the various wards' needs and should be judged beyond what can be seen with the"naked eye".
