A group of former Robben Island political prisoners is seeking economic opportunities in Rand West City and beyond.
These members of Ten Tree Team Property Ltd have formed a joint venture with two other companies during a special signing ceremony at Randfontein Golf Club on Thursday, 3 December, under the name Agang Infrastructure Development.
According to Bizzah Matsobane, secretary and spokesperson of the Ten Tree Team, they joined forces with SOMATHSA Holdings (Pty) Ltd, Amandungwa and Inyosi Construction company.
Sello Matsobane, who is the deputy chairperson of the company, said one of the primary aims of signing the agreement is to ensure economic opportunities for former political prisoners in the country.
Vuyisile Edward Mbundu said having been involved in a political struggle, they now have a big challenge when it comes to exploiting economic opportunities in the country.
We would also like to explore other economic opportunities in other sectors, not necessary only those that the government has to offer,” Mbundu said.
