Disgruntled former employees of state-owned bus company Great North Transport staged an overnight protest outside the Premier’s offices in Polokwane, Limpopo, demanding over R300 million in unpaid pensions.

A forensic report revealed that GNT deducted pension contributions from the workers’ salaries but failed to transfer the funds to the relevant pension schemes. “The contribution of the employer by the Limpopo government which was not given to Alexander Forbes, Sanlam and pension funds, made Alexander Forbes terminate the contract and also Sanlam, which disadvantaged those employees for them to get their pension,” said Masindi.
