Vandals have ravaged the Winburg sports complex in the Free State, reducing buildings and pavilion to a heap of rubble: SUPPLIED
Construction of the second stadium started in January 2013 but came to a halt when it was discovered that the contractor was doing shoddy work. This led to the contract being terminated and the project’s consultant took over the work in a sub-contract. “Due to these re-constructions that occurred there was eventually insufficient funds on the project to appoint another contractor to complete the works,” director of infrastructure Lungile Mukoteli revealed.
Mukoteli would not comment on a claim by the DA of tender corruption in the project, but said the matter will be handed over to the Municipal Public Accounts Committee for investigation and recommendations. “…their contracts ended and due to financial constraints [the] municipality was not able to keep them,” she added.Brunhilde Rossouw, a DA councillor in Masilonyana, said it was unthinkable that the municipality and the police have done little to prevent further decay at either facility.
“The buildings and pavilions have been dismantled and the building material looted over an extensive period of time…the petition seeks an immediate intervention and for the facilities to be rehabilitated as well as sufficient security to be put in place,” she said.
