So public funds are used to do things that benefits the public, things like crime prevention and cleaning the place, which funds should he use for that?

I am sure those who benefit from the employment would be very grateful, someone has to do the job, if they just happen to be so grateful that they vote for the ANC I guess it's not a problem, who are we to tell people what to do?

Sometimes I wonder if you're able to outshine yourself; and then you do. You're condoning vote-buying. I guess that's no surprise, being an ANC supporter.

I know Champ just luuvs Lesufi but maybe he should ask why the scum doesn't just pay Putco what is due to them and help actual workers as well as supporting NGO's (child welfare etc) at previously agreed levels rather than letting these services slide. Lesufi is just another version of Mbalula, all babble, no real care or intention to do what is best for Sipho Average.

Champy and the other CRAP crewers do provide endless laughs though....
Would be a sadder place here if they were not around with their endless wisdom...

Very true! Hence why they're not on my ignore list. I need the entertainment in my life.

There are people and entities already hired to perform those functions. What he should be doing as province should be capacitating those existing entities to do those jobs, not hiring more temps by giving tenders to comrades who act as labour brokers at huge profits. There is too little accountability at local government and instead of dealing with that in a sustainable manner he hires temps to give appearance of doing work as a temp salve to ANC incompetence.

It's EPWP jobs, people are employed for a fixed period, when it lapses another group comes in.

Please don't start on EPWP; it may as well be a grant for all the use it is (in many cases) as those "employed" do minimal work and learn very little. In others it is sneaked in to contracts where labourers would be employed in any event, now they are "EPWP's". Finally, in order to submit the data a Gupta type "consultant" comes and provides templates etc all at a cost to the government entity and which, at my guess, may be more than the cost of the workers. After that, never seen again. It is a scam methinks.

ANC sinks to new low as race quotas ban 'coloured population group' from employment in certain provinces

“The social perversion created by these targets constitute a clear and urgent threat to the social fabric of South Africa. The implication is that companies operating in certain parts of the country are banned from employing even a single coloured or Indian person in a particular position. If...
t.co

The quotas seem especially targeted at the groups defined by the regulations as “coloured males,” “coloured females,” “Indian males” and “Indian females.” People from these communities suffered discrimination under the previous regime, and now they are being re-victimised by a democratic government that has learnt all the wrong lessons from the past.

In sectors like agriculture, forestry and fisheries, mining and quarrying, manufacturing, finance, arts, and science, the “targets” set for coloured employees in provinces like Limpopo, Mpumalanga and North West is 0.0%, effectively banning these groups from employment. Even in Gauteng, the country’s economic heartland, employment by people classified by the State as coloured is sometimes limited to below 1%. In the case of employees classified by the State as Indian, the targets are often as low as 0.1% across economic sectors.
