Corruption is the enemy of our destiny,” he said.In his address, Zungu used the platform to lament the limited inclusion of black-owned companies in large contracts with public enterprises. He said he would like to challenge Public Entreprises Minister Pravin Gordhan, who was also in attendance, to think about the inclusion of black businesses in some of the department's contracts.In his response to Zungu’s plea, Gordhan said it was “something we need to think about carefully”- adding that there were processes about how to tackle such challenges.
The Black Business Council is holding a two-day summit which is aimed at ventilating some of the key issues impeding the growth of black entrepreneurs.
