The two organisations wrote an open letter addressed to Ramaphosa and National Treasury in which they raised concerns at the high levels of corruption taking place through the country’s public procurement system.
“If, after this and the outcome of the national executive committee meeting [on Monday], there is no decisive action taken against individuals, the president will lose every bit of credibility he has retained,” he said.The joint letter called on both Ramaphosa and Finance Minister Tito Mboweni to show leadership during this time.
The organisations added: “We urgently call on you both to demonstrate the bold leadership and political will required to ensure the redrafting process is rigorous, participatory and decisive, and that it draws input from all sectors of government.” “South Africa’s procurement system must be in accordance with section 217 of the Constitution,” the organisations said.
On Monday it came to light that the NEC had reached a consensus that the governing party had to stand firmly against corruption and take immediate action against those implicated in grave misconduct.
