What! This person gets paid R37 393 according to the financial report. Please is there anybody out there who can give me an intelligent answer as to what his job entails and more to the point: what has been achieved by this individual. Value for money - the standards inspector and ward councillor […]

Name: SD
What a con. Checking through the registry of domains for .co.za I can see that this and the security sites are owned by the same person.
