Dringende antwoorde oor bewerings van onre\u00eblmatighede rakende die aankoop van twee 12 500\u2113-septiese-suigtenkwaens (“honey suckers”) deur die Matjhabeng-munisipaliteit word ge\u00ebis. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die munisipaliteit bedien Allanridge, Hennenman, Odendaalsrus, Ventersburg, Virginia en Welkom.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
‘n Verklaring van die VF Plus s\u00ea luidens mediaberigte is die twee tenkwaens teen ‘n koste van R20 miljoen aangekoop, terwyl die gekwoteerde waarde R5,4 miljoen elk beloop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nDie twee tenkwaens teen ‘n koste van R20 miljoen aangekoop<\/strong> – Stephan Pienaar VF Pus-raadslid<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Dit is nie die eerste keer dat Matjhabeng in die kollig is oor twyfelagtige voertuig-aankope nie. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2021 is daar ook berig oor voertuie wat onder die dekmantel van nuwe aankope aangeskaf is; dit het egter later geblyk dat dit tweedehandse en onbruikbare voertuie is, wat vandag in werkswinkels staan en stof vergaar. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die VF Plus het versoek dat die munisipaliteit se munisipale openbare rekeninge-komitee (MPAC) die mees onlangse aangeleentheid dringend ondersoek, insluitend die aankoopprys, tenderproses, verskaffer, voertuigspesifikasies en of die voertuie wel operasioneel is, s\u00ea Stephan Pienaar, VF Plus-raadslid in die Matjhabeng-plaaslike munisipaliteit.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pienaar s\u00ea Matjhabeng is ongelukkig bekend daarvoor dat di\u00e9 munisipaliteit gereeld in die nuus is weens korrupsie en wanbestuur. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Hierdie munisipaliteit is nie net besig om diens-lewering te vernietig nie, maar ook om die basiese waardigheid van alle inwoners hier ernstig te ondermyn,” meen Pienaar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Ons sal nie toelaat dat hierdie bewerings onder die mat ingevee word nie. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Inwoners van Matjhabeng verdien werkende dienste en nie nog vrae oor waar hul geld heen is nie,” vat Pienaar dit saam.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
