Millions more needed for Tembisa mega housing project
JOHANNESBURG - Many more millions are needed to resuscitate the Tembisa Mega Housing Project, which has already cost the taxpayer R97-million.
The Ekurhuleni Municipality project began in 2018 and was designed to deliver 3,510 housing units.
Some of the buildings have their roofs, doors, windows and electrical sockets stripped off.
The national Department of Human Settlements is now intervening to push the project to completion.
Minister Thembi Simelane is engaging stakeholders about solutions to see the project over the line.
