SA’s Covid- 19 corruption scandals have been thrown into the international spotlight and have battered the country's image globally.“However, corruption related to PPE, for me it's actually murder. If health workers work without PPE, we're risking their lives and the lives of the people they serve. It is murder and it has to stop.”On Sunday, President Cyril Ramaphosa said the ANC must confront the stark reality that it is now “accused number one” for corruption.
In a letter addressed to ANC members, Rampahosa called on members to make the unprecedented times the turning point in the fight against corruption, saying the movement and the country are facing one of the greatest challenges since democracy. He reminded members of reflections during the party's 54th conference regarding corruption and how it robs South Africans.“I am sure you are aware that across the nation there is a sense of anger and disillusionment at reports of corruption in our response to the coronavirus pandemic. This anger is understandable and justified,” said Ramaphosa.
