The National Youth Development Agency has welcomed calls for an audit into the R69m event today.
In addition, the agency has also defended the 17th World Youth Festival from criticism received by the media.
NYDA Chairperson Andile Lungisa said in a statement said he emphasized the fact that there was no reporting on some venues being full and on the robust discussions taking place.
“I want to emphasise that no sessions have been cancelled because there are no speakers and none of the speakers cancelled their attendance,” he said.
“The festival is going ahead as planned and focus should be on the content,” says Lungisa.
