Presenter Bongani Bingwa chats to Gauteng Social Development spokesperson Feziwe Ndwayana and the Democratic Alliance (DA)'s Bronwyn Engelbrecht.
An old age home in Randfontein that cost the Gauteng Social Development Department over R43 million to construct has been unused for the past six years.
The facility is yet to be issued with an occupancy certificate as the building does not comply with occupational health and safety standards. Engelbrecht claims that the building is still not up to scratch and has undergone ongoing repair work. The department did everything that it could to make sure that the facility isn't empty and that it's occupied and operating. However, the municipality and its technical teams have its own internal processes that we couldn't meddle with.
