Show Notes
Nelson Mandela Bay officials, including Mayor Babalwa Lobishe, traveled to Cape Town for a parliamentary meeting, only to find it rescheduled. The trip cost taxpayers $88,000, as they missed the rescheduling notice due to admin slip-ups. Parliaments chair criticized the disorganization, and a DA councilor called for accountability. Lobishe stands firm, blaming staff for the mess, but has since improved processes to avoid future taxpayer hits.
