Trade Union and key tripartite alliance member Cosatu has called for minister of social development Bathabile Dlamini get booted from cabinet.
Oyster Box minister Bathabile Dlamini’s — who also happens to be leader of the ANC Women’s League and minister of social development — spokesperson took to Facebook with a few pretty crude words for the controversial minister’s detractors.
Bathabile Dlamini is in trouble again, this time for awarding a CPS tender, meant to help millions of vulnerable South Africans get their social grants, to her buddies.
Bathabile Dlamini — the minister who famously said the average South African can live off R753 a month while she stays in R11 000 a night hotel rooms — once again finds herself in the news for wasting money that doesn’t belong to her.
That’s right folks; the South African Social Security Agency, charged with taking care of the poor and vulnerable, has increased its expenditure from R93 million to R1 billion in just one year.
