UNEMPLOYED PEOPLE’S MOVEMENT (Grahamstown)
PRESS RELEASE
UNEMPLOYED PEOPLE’S MOVEMENT CALLS FOR R2000.00 GUARANTEED INCOME FOR THE UNEMPLOYED PEOPLE OF SOUTH AFRICA
We have read with dismay the weekend news that Julius Malema has profited from more than R130-million worth of tenders in just two years. The projects range from road and pavement construction bulk water and upgrading cemeteries.
This country is still recovering from the Arms Deal saga that cost tax payers not less than R25-38 billion for the benefit of the few.
Our government is corrupt and fraudulent beyond repairs. Yet our country remains the most unequal in the world. Many people live in permanent poverty and millions are unemployed for most of their adult lives.
