Lotto pays for Cosatu bash

Has Tony Ehrenreich, Western Cape leader of ANC and COSATU, commented on this theft of money intended for good causes?

One notes his propensity of screaming fact-less accusations at the DA and as a champion of the poor, whose support organisations would have benefited by a million rand injection, I am surprised at his silence.

I hope that in the future, whenever he stands up to speak, the audience immediately start shouting "LOTTO" ...
 
I heard an interview with some or other Lotto rep on Talk Radio 702 - a Naidoo guy - and the idiot defended the payment of the money to COSATU by saying it met the requisite criteria and they saw nothing wrong with.

Talk about dim !!!
 
eViva eSouth eAfrica, where stealing of public funds are the defacto rule of law by the eAfrican rulers in the name of the eANC who is running running the eCountry.
 
Got a reply:


I will follow up your inquiry with the Minister and trust that I will be able to give you some positive feedback as soon as possible.

Dear Mr Smalle,

I came across this article and would like to share my experience with the Lotto with you.

In my private capacity and on a voluntary basis I act as the treasurer for Child Welfare South Africa in East London (CWSA:EL).

In December 2009 CWSA:EL applied for R2.4m from the Lotto. Eventually in June 2011 we were allocated some funds. We were allocated R1.2m out of the R2.4m i.e. 50%.

When this was queried we were told that and I quote "There are so many charities which require assistance that the money had to be shared between them all".

In addition, to date we still have not received this money - we have been waiting now for over 18 months since our application went in. It should also be noted that the delay for payout is not due to any documentation being outstanding from our side.

I find this so hard to understand considering the matters discussed in the article below.

In the meantime, while Lotto appear to be squandering funds, CWSA:EL have really been struggling with keeping it's doors open!

I have also been told by the CWSA:EL director that our issues with the lotto are not an isolated incident as numerous charities have had the same problems.

Thanks.

Our Child Welfare offices were broken into last night again, computer's all stolen along with some donation money in safe......don't you just love Africa!
Luckily I'm still repairing their main Book keeping computer so the "workers" might still get paid so they don't go on strike.
 
Luckily no children in this country need food or clothing otherwise it would be a TOTAL DISGRACE AND VERY VERY SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
