Being the head of the home isn't easy, you are expected to provide for the home, I lost my job during the pandemic and relied on the little money I had,things were hard until I met Allison_Grillo and started Bitcoin trading, I earned R150,000 in 3 weeks thanks Allison_Grillo.

Dig deeper

City_Press The more things change under the ANC, the more they stay the same. Eating Time

City_Press Their system upgrade is long overdue as it is not compatible with the current OS versions. It was deployed in 2007 and it was never upgraded to this day. The server rooms are in very bad condition and the auditors are always in their case.

City_Press How many hospitals can be build with that money?

City_Press This one is a liability to human kind

City_Press With some patients possibly dead? What is more important? doctors, nurses, better infrastructure and other workers? Start now as patients visit hospital. Ag man. Who will stop this? Hospital is not Home Affairs. Sies man Corruption ya ANC! 🥺😭😭🙆‍♀️

City_Press But the system is always down at these government places. How the fuk is digitizing files going to improve anything

City_Press Oeps! Skelms

City_Press R1B? Wow!

City_Press This should have been a national project though

ITUMELE23412666 City_Press R1 billion pho?

City_Press Our tax money hard at work.

City_Press Mediblock Get with the program.

City_Press This is outrageous.

City_Press Kante how does budget allocation work…we don’t have the funds to maintain not even upgrade or build new hospital but we have funds (R1b) to digitize…when priorities r not the ppl u serve but ur own pocket, these r the results…South African really is alive with possibilities

City_Press ANC will remain masepa a party sies

City_Press Looting non stop

City_Press Oh my gosh.

City_Press Digitizing is the new operative tool to steal government money ...

City_Press

City_Press Krismus bonuuus

City_Press Is stealing a religion that the ANC believe in.

Ofhie57405558 City_Press Im sure u can't even sleep on those hospital beds lot of medication not available

City_Press This is clearly overpriced.....if home affairs sa can do it for 2.3 billion

City_Press CyrilRamaphosa your people are at it again.

R1bn ....this is ludicrous ...don't know what technology is being used..but if they stored that on AWS ..it would not be remotely close to that amount

City_Press lol digitisation is going to be the new cash cow. Why do we still have piles of files in hospitals, home affairs, police stations, 'and so on and so forth' when everything could have been captured and digitised as it happens? Then we would not have to digitise anything.

City_Press the more things change the more they stay the same

City_Press Chances are , a white man lost this tender hence why it making headlines, the world is moving to digital platform, not so long ago a person living with disabilities waited for more than 6hours while hospital staff was looking for her file, yes 6 hours !

City_Press It's a scam to build a war chest for ANC come 2024 elections

City_Press The tap is not leaking anymore it's broken

City_Press I'm sure a white person wanted this tender but was given to a black person. We need such records, if you've ever worked in DoH you will understand. I just hope and pray they execute the job 1000% and shame the WMCs who want to be the only beneficiaries of government tenders

City_Press This is typical extravagant spending by health services.There isn't money for proper health care.

City_Press Well its ANC cadres involved. You cannot expect any good from this group of people

City_Press 🤣😂🤣😂 you gotta love this ANC even in the face of public scrutiny.

City_Press A storage facility company getting an IT tender.. 🙂🙃🙂

Matome8 City_Press Go scana le go save costs R1billion?

City_Press Disgusting!

City_Press We become worried when we see word Digital

City_Press This ANC government do not play with small change, they keep it big so that they can benefit from all contracts

City_Press Well... yeah

City_Press What's the importance of SITA?

City_Press ANC knows where to bank. The Health Department. Speaking of digitizing then, how much is it going to cost Home Affairs adding 10 000 youth in remuneration

City_Press Why put it to tender when you they could've hired R350 earners for a few months to do the digitizing?

City_Press 😳😳😳 … one fokken BILLION RAND? EFFSouthAfrica EFF Julius_S_Malema Action4SA PresidencyZA CyrilRamaphosa Our_DA

City_Press It just doesn't stop.

City_Press Because half of that money going into pockets of the looters.

City_Press ANC is corrupt and voting for ANC is voting for poverty.

City_Press No no no... they must all be arrested. Logically, manual filing & barefooting all aspects of our lives should be COMPULSORY when energy insecurity is this guaranteed!

City_Press Another crooked tender - cancel it

KidiPotse City_Press Yah this government!

City_Press More legal battles

City_Press We know this crap will never happen

City_Press Goeie bliksem… canr we also give Limpopo to the Zulu King? Then it wont be South Africa’s problem anymore

City_Press Here we go again. When will we ever stop giving money away so cheaply? The tender price is overpriced with at least 800 to 900 million rands. Where is Veritas Digital based?

City_Press The trough is still deep for the piggies!! MYANC

City_Press I'll do it for half the price..

City_Press What was the tender process? Was Varitas Digital the cheapest bidder? I find it hard to believe that. Surely there are many IT companies in South Africa that can do this for far far less we need proper inquiries and effective journalism!!!

City_Press God knows how much kickbacks will go to that short hair minister 🤦🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️🤞

City_Press Limpopo e tšeya kae 1 billion

City_Press Yoh

City_Press I wouldn't be surprised if Mpumalanga is also in this scandal. They are copy cats of Limpopo province

City_Press Good for them it's the new dawn

City_Press The eating continues.

City_Press Correction.

City_Press Question is this important, before giving the tender who was doing the file keeping and why a billion rand,while our hospitals don't have apparatus,and services are poor, and dying,how much is the mec,friends, families is getting out of this contract, when are voters getting

City_Press Haai this tender business has to stop, rather employ Temps to do the work

City_Press Maybe a question should be why not follow HomeAffairsSA route with that 1 billion rands empower unemployed graduates in the province? PhophiRamathuba take us into confidence that this tendering route is the only solution? 1 billion is a lot of money that can empower many.

City_Press Even better could have hired all those unemployed graduates to scan in house for a fraction of the price

City_Press I could have done it with a scanner at home or got private companies to do it for R200k max

City_Press Corruption to no end

City_Press Wow I see another tender theft coming who owns Veritas Digital?

Andrew18767683 City_Press Here we go again

City_Press More robbery VoetsekANC VoetsekANC VoetsekANC VoetsekANC VoetsekANC VoetsekANC

City_Press

City_Press Ramathuba 🚩🚩🚩

City_Press Surely you digitize going forward or for patients with ongoing treatment not patients you have no knowledge of now- just another corruption pot for the ANC

City_Press Corruption corruption corruption!!

City_Press

City_Press 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡. MORE THAN A BILLION LMAO

City_Press Nothing new 🤣

City_Press The ANC thugs at it again!! Time to remove these thugs once and for all. ancmustfall

City_Press Maybe it's time this country is handed back to white people bcoz Afriforum could have done a better job. No accountability under Ramaphosa's leadership, this country is on autopilot.

City_Press SIU need to investigate this matter further

City_Press Surely this is way out of reality? If hospitals cannot operate a simple patient filing system how is a complex digitalised system going to help? In this modern age an off the shelf system is available with support. The computers needed would be laid to waste or stolen. Audit!

City_Press I am assuming they will be using blockchain technology for this…

City_Press Rather focus on this than fixing the state of our hospitals.

City_Press Limpopo at it again, this got crus problem with this department right poor management

City_Press That for whole of south africans and includes zimbabwean

City_Press Yip the stealing continues

City_Press Motsoaledi has opened a can of worms with digitization. Lesufi is going to advertise digitization of matric scripts from 1652 till today at a cost of R10bn.

City_Press When the ANC shows it can run anything properly it should embark upon the quest to nationalize the health service. With its record at SAA, Denel, Home Affairs, the traffic department, the police force, Escom, Education and the state of the roads - don't fix what is not broke.

City_Press Sjoe! That's a lot of money. But what hospital don't immediately capture a patients details on computer.

City_Press The health Dept has no money for meds.. Cant do scans.. Cancer patients being turned away.. But have millions to spend on Cuban doctors and billions to spend on digitizing.. Instead of employing people.. They outsource...

City_Press While hospitals are in dyer space like this

City_Press The anc needs money

City_Press Afriforum built an entire university for 1/3 ( for the ANC - that's 33%) of that price.

City_Press Cant stop stealing

City_Press Could have done this for 100m

City_Press Kickback for cdes for December Conference, ANC will never change...

City_Press

City_Press NEWDAWN

City_Press Its BEE bru,now BBBEE.Each B stands for 'Brother eating' .

City_Press And fuck all will be digitised...we all know MYANC is going to steal that money! VoetsekANC

City_Press JackD157 did your cut inflate the price?😜

City_Press Is dié mense befok?

City_Press Explains those houses in the village.

City_Press One Billion aowa banna

City_Press Billion

City_Press This woman is running our province down!

City_Press Patients are not permanent residents of hospital. Why digitise old patient file? Maybe 1 needs to be taught something. Why not put a system that will do that going forward. At 1 billion U say, not built a hospital like Steve Biko Academic in Limpopo 2 avoid long patient travel.

City_Press Ma se ......

City_Press This one tsotsi period always have reasons for her corruption👉🏻Fraud

City_Press This is disgusting. This is an uncaring state that is only interested in feeding at the trough.

City_Press Home affairs and now Limpopo, who is next? Probably time to invest in some heavy IT stuff..

City_Press We must continue to vote and vote for ANC

This poppy has been a crook a long time

We know this campaign of the white people who lost an open and fair bid. They have tried to use DA through the provincial legislature and were exposed badly. We need to institutionalise that black people and other races will win tenders and there’s nothing wrong
