EFF lays corruption charge against public works minister over alleged tender interference

The EFF laid a corruption charge against public works minister Dean Macpherson at the Pretoria Central police station on Wednesday. According to the EFF, the minister allegedly interfered in the tender affairs of the Independent Development Trust (IDT). The IDT is mandated to support all spheres of government with social infrastructure management and programme implementation.Speaking outside the police station, EFF secretary-general Marshall Dlamini said the party has enough “evidence to prove the minister was involved in tender interference at the IDT”.
