Kaya 959 Point of View with Phemelo Motene

Is SA overspending on VIP Protection?

--:--
The ANC-EFF coalition with minor parties in the City of Johannesburg is spending more on VIP bodyguards than any other city in South Africa, even as its finances are in trouble.
The coalition government has adjusted its budget from R83-billion to R76-billion as declining revenue harms services — but the council’s last meeting approved a
spending splurge for city bigwigs. Executive Mayor Kabelo Gwamanda of the three-seat Al Jama-ah party will have 10 bodyguards from the Johannesburg Metropolitan Police Department (JMPD) and eight cars from its fleet allocated to him. Is this necessary?DA Johannesburg caucus leader, Belinda Kayser- Echeozonjoku expresses her opinions on this.
