Dlamini continues with food parcel abuse
Reports from within the North West Department of Social Development confirmed that the Departmental officials are involved in a frantic race against time to identify 3000 recipients to receive food parcels during the week before the 18th September Tlokwe Municipality by-elections.
No food parcels are being distributed at this stage - even impoverished people, who have never before received food parcels, must wait until the second week in September when Min Bathabile Dlamini and other high ranking ANC officials will once again descend on Potchefstroom in blue-lighted fancy cars to hand out state-funded food parcels as if it was ANC funded.
The public outcry after the handing out of 300 food parcels in ward 9 in the days preceding the 7th August by-election appears to have no effect on the continued abuse of state resources in ANC's desperate attempts to claim back control of the Tlokwe Municipality.
The DA will formally report the abuse to the Public Protector
