Johannesburg’s economic development MMC Nkululeko Mbundu is embroiled in a municipality tender row. The ActionSA councillor remains in office while officially under investigation for allegedly breaching the Municipal Finance Management Act.

Nkululeko Mbundu, City of Johannesburg’s mayoral committee member for economic development, is facing an investigation by council Speaker Vasco da Gama’s office for alleged interference in tender processes that are supposed to be handled by the Johannesburg Property Company . He is alleged to have breached the Municipal Finance Management Act .

Daily Maverick has seen an email thread dating back to 18 February in which Mbundu instructs Lulama Ndlovu, the executive director in the department, to request a detailed quote for the Walter Sisulu Square of Dedication refurbishment project from JPC General Manager Sipho Mhlongo. in the Procurement Process. Mbunud though has denied any wrong doing saying he’s exposing corruption hence the noise and push back!In the email sent on 22 April, Mzobe implies that Mbundu breached section 117 of the Municipal Finance Management Act by involving himself in the procurement process.

“In preparation for the one on one with the Executive Mayor [Mpho Phalatse], the MMC raised the issue of the memo [about his interference] to the board and attempted to force me to respond to his questions, insisting that what he did was not interference. We felt very intimidated in the presence of colleagues from the department of economic development where he wanted to force answers from us regarding the BOQ.

So VoetsekSAMedia continues to hate South Africans. How much did ANC pay you for this article?

So its wrong to question inflated pricing,we need this guy to be minister

BantuComprador 🤣 funny thing is, action sa people would want other people to step down while they are being investigated

Media is fighting anything that is Putting SAns first.

It's what I have been saying all along! We are paying these ppl to enrich themselves & rule us & increase our rates of living costs where they get paid more each time prices go up & this is what they do! Steal more & more. Never content. politiciansmustfall nomorepolitics .

ANC Corruption👉🏻Fraud Taps Closed👉🏻Dry😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣

Dailymaverick and mailandguardian are pushing their own agenda. What happen to investigating matters before you write? Be strong Nkuli we know some journalists are in the pockets of politicians. The crime nkuli committed was to hate corruption that's all.

This is embarrassing for these Corrupt Cats, they couldn't even wait a year to steal

The Daily Maverick has a very clear anti-Black South African agenda.

'Officially'? You are trading careful you don't want to irritate the buffalo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

mfazomnyama_ He is not an ANC member

Be strong leadership soon the truth shall be revealed

Shucks🤬

The heading should actually be : ' JPC in hot water over fence in Soweto that costs R5 million'. Is it like our R22 million rand flagpole that glows in the dark?

So the looters of the ANC have brought trumped up accusations to the MMC that is turning off their corruption and looting taps, and the Daily Maverick decided to run with the story without even finding out the facts of the situation?

MMC continue closing the Looting taps,ANC can go throw themselves of a hill! How can fencing in a Soweto small building be R 5M

NkuliMbundu Remain strong leader Nkuli road to 2024 is going to be brutal, ActionSA is hated for passing informal trade policy,closing corruption taps for Cadres and putting South Africacan first

Action4SA are no better than the ANC/EFF .. if this was a DA councilor, he would have been suspended already pending the outcome..

You buying that anc KAK.

Few months back I had no way of taking care of my kids , had no job or money also struggling through the pandemic,so I decided to try Bitcoin trading with the help of Allison_Grillo I was able to earn $50,000 now am financially stable.

This is nothing but a blatant witch-hunt. It's clear the MMC suspects something untoward taking place and is therefore not trusting of the process being followed.

markedw666 The MMC enjoys support from all South Africans who are tired of the ANC's corruption and looting. This is nothing but a plot by the corrupt to continue stealing from the public purse.

As a mother of two kids I have battled alot with my financial state to the point of begging from friends just to survive,until I started Bitcoin trading with the help of Allison_Grillo I made a successful withdrawal of R 200,000 with the help of Allison_Grillo.
