The DA in Mpumalanga has accused Thaba Chweu officials of contempt of court after they allegedly failed to abide by a court ruling to stop sewage spilling into a river since 2011

The Lydenburg Magistrates' Court fined the municipality R10 million in June last year for doing nothing about the raw sewage, which had been spilling into Dorps River, and leaving heaps of waste piling up on the streets.

“The only reference to a plan is when officials respond to queries by stating that they are working on a plan,” she said. Manqele defended himself in a 14-page report to MPAC by alleging that Matsi had completely sidelined him from participating in the awarding of tenders in his department. This, Manqele said, was done so that unskilled contractors and unregistered consultants could be appointed.
