Angry Msunduzi residents call for forensic investigation

Angry Msunduzi residents and ratepayers want the government to launch a forensic investigation into the local municipality, which includes Pietermaritzburg, and for lifestyle audits of its staff, alleging it is rife with corruption, political interference and mismanagement.

The residents’ latest call comes as they battle with the municipality’s new multiple billing system that has thrown some into arrears and led to the municipality threatening to disconnect their water and electricity services.
