North West municipality, Ngaka Modiri Molema becomes the first public official to be held personally responsible for loss of millions in a tender. This loss claimed R4.6 millions from mismanagement of the tender.
The matter arises after auditor-general (AG), Tsakane Maluleke slapped the Ngaka Modiri Molema municipal manager with her first certificate of debt (CoD).
Khumalo Molefe, Ngaka Modiri Molema’s mayor, will have to ensure Allan Losaba pays back the money lost in the “material irregularity” from his own pocket and therefore, he is instructed to provide an update in this regard to Maluleke by the end of December.
