“No steps have been taken to recover some of the money that was lost to the PPE tender scandal which took place at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.
“Premier Makhura has failed dismally as the leader of this province and should be removed as a matter of urgency.”
“The public purse under his watch has been looted unabated and having Premier Makhura in office for any longer will only make this situation worse,” the statement read.
