SAPO employees stole millions in grants in 2020

More than 1,700 South African Post Office workers received social grants for which they did not qualify last year, costing the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) around R1.5 million per month.

This was revealed by Minister of Social Development Lindiwe Zulu in a response to a question from Democratic Alliance MP Bridget Masango in Parliament.

Masango asked the minister what the total amount paid by SASSA was to recipients who did not qualify for all types of grants in 2020.

Post office workers stealing? No waaaaayyy!! I don't believe it!

 

[Solitude]

And then they want to deliver all the normal packages? Those post office employees must be licking their lips.

Stealing parcels, now from SASSA, nice, they are starting to diversify

 

[LazyLion]

They probably thought that was part of their job...

Wha ha ha ha This is only the tip of the iceberg. What about the corruption, theft that they still have not found out or what they don't want to make public as yet? The corruption and theft of grant money will already, most likely, be in the hundreds of millions, if not billions.

There was a reason why government needed to get grant payments out of the private sectors' hands and straight into the lions' cage....

Sat next to a Sweetlips in HA many years ago registering late births for 5grand a pop. She must have added 10 kids in 2 hours in her little black book.
First checked bank deposit then filled in another form pulled from a huge briefcase.

“The grants were suspended, saving SASSA approximately R1.5 million per month,” she stated.

SAPO - novices - Only R1.5m
Dept of Lesufi stole R430m on sanitizing empty schools.
Dept of Nqakula SANDF stole R260m on useless drugs.
Guptas stole billions.

Give SAPO a break.

These guys have improved by miles. We received a birthday card two days ago which was posted in Germany during October 2020.

 

[Hemi300c]

Who would have thought ..........government and SOE employees stealing, well I never............

 

[Vorastra]

No way.

 

[Fulcrum29]

When you hear about so much corruption, you sure haven't heard all of it.

 

[adnaanhitman]

Is this supposed to surprise us? Please give us sum real news.

 

[The Light Green Hornet]

Is anyone still surprised? They are part of the corrupt new government. The African National Criminals won't touch them because they are the same.

Besides the social grants, they also received 4 packages of mine from Amazon that were unfortunately sent via the SAPO. Luckily Amazon is cool and they resent them.
However, someone's sticky fingers got stuff that never belonged to them.
