Briefing the media following their central-committee meeting in Johannesburg, SACP Secretary General Blade Nzimande said the Tripartite Alliance must unite against corruption in the public and private sectors.
Nzimande shared these sentiment after the controversy surrounding ANC Youth League leader Julius Malema and the tenders awarded to some of the companies he was a director of.
Nzimande, a cabinet member responsible for higher education and training, said the tender process must be more transparent.
Meanwhile Cosatu today said it wants to take a lead by encouraging all its leaders to undergo a life style audit.
Earlier in the month the labour federation called for all ministers to undergo a lifestyle audit following Malema’s lavish lifestyle.
It was reported Malema’s companies had been awarded more than 20 contracts, worth millions of rand.
Reports says a provincial leader in Gauteng said alliance party leaders should volunteer for a life style audit, as well as those from opposition parties.
