DA in Gauteng is at loggerheads with Premier Panyaza Lesufi over the release of concealed forensic reports. Despite pleas since 2019, the reports remain undisclosed, prompting threats from the DA to report Lesufi to the auditor-general and public protector. The delayed release of reports on corrupt activities within government departments, including the recent revelations about the social development department, has fueled the DA’s frustration. Leader Solly Msimanga called on Lesufi to show transparency and commitment to fighting corruption by releasing the reports and implementing recommendations.
Lesufi’s alleged failure to conduct lifestyle audits and initiate investigations at Rahima Moosa Hospital further highlights the corruption challenges in Gauteng. The DA vows to persist in demanding the release of reports to uphold accountability and recover lost funds due to corruption. With Lesufi’s office yet to respond to the accusations, the standoff between the DA and the provincial government over transparency and good governance continues.
