R27m from Lottery but six years later rehab still not operational | Business

A multimillion-rand grant to build a rehabilitation centre in Mpumalanga was approved just 18 days after the Southern African Youth Movement applied for National Lotteries Commission funding.

There are no patients or staff and the facility is yet to get a licence to operate from the Department of Social Development . "Take note that landscaping and stormwater are not originally part of the scope, as well as the swimming pool and the waste building. These were considered with finishings, and they were done at SAYM's own cost as per licence requirements," he wrote.

The funded projects include an old age home in Botshabelo, which SAYM says is complete, but which is also still not operational six years after receiving millions in grant funding. It also received R15 million for SAYM told GroundUp that it applied to the Department of Social Development for a licence to operate the rehab. But SAYM only sent us a

and there were"vigorous objections from neighbours" as well as"structural issues that may render the continued building operation illegal", one of which is the lack of water on the property, which is a small farm. The rehab is set in the picturesque Renosterkop Valley, a few kilometres outside Mbombela. The area is zoned for residential and farming uses, and SAYM was required to rezone the property before building and operating a rehab on it.

"The water from the river flows into the Sterkspruit and then the Crocodile River. Everyone who depends on water from those rivers will be affected if there are not proper sewerage systems at the rehab," he says. Among the objections is the placing of a drug rehab in the middle of a rural residential area, which residents say poses a security risk to them.

GroundUp_News Imagine stealing money meant to uplift the poor & youths Imagine the depravity & lack of morales you must posses to do this. These people should not be part of society for a long time.

Musk restores some suspended Twitter accounts of journalists | BusinessThe Twitter accounts of several journalists suspended after Musk accused them of endangering his family were reinstated on Saturday, but some said the billionaire owner offered full use of the platform only if they deleted posts about tracking his location Elon, has a 'God' complex. Sadly, in my humble opinion, an embarrassment to Saffers. Musk has twitted his own real time location before but now is falsely accusing journalists for doing it. Musk has zero credibility. Censorship at best.
