Join the picket against EPWP corruption in Nelson Mandela Bay

By

Tomorrow, 19 October 2023, the Democratic Alliance (DA) will lead a picket against corruption within the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) in the Nelson Mandela Bay municipality.

The picket in front of City Hall in Gqeberha will be led by DA EC Provincial Chairperson, Yusuf Cassim MPL, DA NMB Caucus Leader, Cllr Retief Odendaal, and DA EC Provincial Spokesperson, Cllr Georgina Faldtman.

The abuse of EPWP funds has created an untenable situation where money meant to provide work and a stipend to the poorest families in the Metro, is being used to enrich connected individuals with high-value contracts.

The DA will not falter in its fight to rescue Nelson Mandela Bay and get the Metro working again.

Details of the event are:

Date: Tomorrow, 19 October 2023
Time: 10:30
Venue: Vuyisile Mini Square, City Hall, Govan Mbeki Avenue, Gqeberha
