We tried to pull out of Tshwane contract in November - GladAfrica
13 March 2019
GladAfrica, the Midrand-based engineering firm which has been in the spotlight because of an Auditor-General (AG) finding that it was irregularly awarded a City of Tshwane contract, claims that it wanted to get out of the contract as far back as November 2018 already.
The City and GladAfrica are to sign off a termination agreement this week, following talks with new Tshwane mayor, Stevens Mokgalapa.
But GladAfrica's founder and chairman Noel Mashaba has used the opportunity to break his silence.
He told News24 during a sit-down interview that the company had long decided to get out of the contract because of the environment in the City.
