This is according to metro spokesperson, Themba Gadebe.
“The manager was suspended with full pay after allegations of tender fraud and corruption involving millions came to the City’s attention, and after a complaint of unethical and corrupt behavior was reported against the same individual to the South African Council for Social Service Professions recently,” said Gadebe.
He said the metro has launched a full-scale investigation into the allegations, a process which is driven by the Internal Audit Department.
“Upon conclusion of the investigation, the City will determine a way forward.
