Fraud, graft alleged in R9m Umzimvubu project
The Citizen
|February 25, 2026
The Hawks in the Eastern Cape are investigating allegations of fraud and corruption against Umzimvubu local municipality for an unfinished R9 million project.
Construction of the shooting range in KwaBhaca started about seven years ago. The shooting range was supposed to generate revenue for the town. Currently, the nearest range is far away.
But the project has been marred by unexplained delays and mushrooming costs.
The site has a 2km gravel road. Some excavation work can be seen. A half-completed slab foundation and a short wall are visible.
