Meanwhile, Williams says he welcomes any investigation following accusations that he interfered with procurement processes in the R26-billion tender bid for energy supply.
Williams is accused of directing the city manager to appoint an energy service provider for the Pretoria West and Rooiwal Power Stations, which have not been in use since 2014.Attempting to set the record straight as his future as mayor of the capital hangs by a thread. Williams denies pursuing any tender and says the proposal was an investment that would not have cost the metro.“I have nothing to hide. The reports are public documents. All the reports are available for scrutiny. There are accusations against me that are quite frankly defamatory. I will be engaging with my attorneys on the legal action against the individuals concerned. As I announced on Tuesday, I have nothing to hide.
Opposition parties, the ANC, EFF and coalition partner ActionSA, claimed the deal was a tender bid for which residents of Tshwane would have had to foot the bill for the next 30 years. Williams denies this and says the project would be fully funded by investors and no financial commitments were made.
