Corruption Watch has uncovered fronting in a R30 million tender won by Mvula Trust to manage the distribution of hundreds of millions of rand through a communities-based job-creation project.

The revelations follow a four month investigation after CW was approached last year by a whistleblower who alleged that rural development NGO Mvula Trust had obtained a government tender illegally.

Corruption Watch’s Bongi Mlangeni said the tender was for a lead agent to manage the Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs Community Works Programme.

Mlangeni added that they would like to see action being taken in this matter and they will do a follow up to see how the police are handling this matter.
