iLembe's R14.7 million scandal, KwaDukuza's hidden investigation, and foreign-owned spaza shops: accountability in freefall
iLembe District spent R14.7 million irregularly. R11.7m renovating a building it doesn't own. Parliament gave them until 19 May to explain.
At KwaDukuza, COGTA investigation exposed systemic governance failures. Three officials suspended. They fought back in court three times. Lost all three, with costs. The investigation report? Still locked away.
Meanwhile, foreign ownership of township spaza shops is hollowing out local job creation.
On this week's Uncensored, we unpack what these failures mean, what's hidden, and what's happening in plain sight. A conversation with two councilors on accountability, institutional breakdown, and the cost of political inaction.
