* *ANC denounces attempts to tarnish the image of the ANC-led provincial government * The ANC in Limpopo rejects the reports in the *City Press* (24 July 2011 edition) that business people are awarded government tenders in exchange for financial support to the ANCYL President, Julius Malema. Like any sphere of government in South Africa, the ANC-led Limpopo government awards tenders according to the South African rules and regulations. And if there is any deviation from the government laws, such practices are penalized accordingly regardless of who is involved. We therefore call on all anonymous media sources and faceless business people to report cases of corruption to the relevant authorities. Failure to do so will just validate our suspicision that peddling of these allegations against the ANC-led provincial government has become a political strategy to tarnish the ANC government and its leaders through baseless allegations. We also call on our ANC members to desist from making unsubstantiated public statements that insinuate that our ANC-led government and leaders are corrupt. If indeed there is credence in their public statements, like all South Africans, ANC members should bring these allegations to the attention of our institutions responsible for dealing with corruption. * * *Issued by the ANC Limpopo * *Contact :* *Joe Maswanganyi, Provincial Secretary, 083 679 7474* *David Masondo, ANC Spokesperson, 072 889 9052* -- You are subscribed.
