Lesufi dismayed by millions spent on decontamination, disinfection and sanitisation of schools
“I wish to reaffirm my commitment to leave no stone unturned on this, including holding those who procured these services accountable,” said Lesufi.
Gauteng Education MEC Panyaza Lesufi is taken aback by the report compiled by the HOD and CFO, which reveals that the department spent R431 274 959.17 on decontamination, disinfection, deep-cleaning, and sanitisation of schools.
Accordingly, the MEC is at an advanced stage in consulting with relevant law enforcement agencies to take up these investigations, including requesting the auditor-general to check and verify if there was value for money used.
“I wish to reaffirm my commitment to leave no stone unturned on this, including holding those who procured these services accountable,” said Lesufi.
