R10 million in Tembisa Hospital contracts linked to suspended Gauteng Health Head Lesiba Malotana! 😡 A shell company (KGDEE Mash) with ties to Malotana scored R9.97 million in suspicious contracts for medical supplies and infrastructure – the same dodgy RFQ system used in the R2 billion Tembisa looting flagged by murdered whistleblower Babita Deokaran. Malotana was suspended for failing his lifestyle audit, yet he was moved to another senior position after only 60 days. SIU flagged potential conflict of interest and non-disclosure. Dr Jack Bloom MPL: “This is outrageous. Premier Lesufi must fast-track disciplinary action and fire Health MEC Nomantu Nkomo-Ralehoko, who called Malotana ‘the best the department ever had’.” A major clean-up is needed in Gauteng Health. Corruption kills patients – DA demands accountability NOW! #DAatWork #RescueSA #DA_GPL #FixGauteng #VoteDA #TembisaCorruption #BabitaDeokaran #EndCorruption @JackBloomDA Read more: open.substack.com/pub/dagpl/p/r1…

Gauteng Health is owed a shocking R4.57 BILLION in unpaid patient fees – while hospitals can't pay staff, fix machines, or suppliers! 😡 R1.8bn from other government departments (Road Accident Fund R1.6bn alone!), R2.63bn from self-paying patients (R2.42bn from foreigners), and R84m from medical aids. Most debt older than 6 months – impossible to collect. Dr Jack Bloom MPL: "Scandalous! This incompetence starves frontline services." DA demands: Fix billing systems, chase government debtors, push national deals with neighbouring countries. A DA-led Gauteng would collect every rand owed and use it to improve patient care, no more excuses! #DAatWork #RescueSA #DA_GPL #FixGauteng #VoteDA #HealthCrisis #UnpaidBills #PatientCare @JackBloomDA Read more: open.substack.com/pub/dagpl/p/da…

Look at this gushing water in Orange Grove, Johannesburg. It’s a disgrace, while other areas don’t even have water. Helen Zille must take over soon!

Premier Lesufi admits: Former Health CFO Lerato Madyo got a hush money payoff – but his office did NOTHING until exposed! 😡 No prior involvement, no immediate action – now a legal firm investigates months later. Madyo ignored Babita Deokaran's warnings, allowed R850m suspicious payments at Tembisa Hospital – and walked away with millions + pension. National Minister Motsoaledi confirmed SIU is probing her role & exit. Yet MEC Nomantu Nkomo-Ralehoko says Madyo not mentioned in SIU reports. Dr Jack Bloom MPL: "Speedy action needed – not pussyfooting. DA demands full agreement public & criminal charges pursued!" Babita got bullets – Madyo got millions. Corruption kills. DA won't stop until justice is served! 💙 #DAatWork #RescueSA #DA_GPL #FixGauteng #VoteDA #TembisaCorruption #BabitaDeokaran #EndCorruption @JackBloomDA Read more: open.substack.com/pub/dagpl/p/ga…

The Gauteng premier threatenig the journalist who helped complete the work started by Babita Deokoran, who exposed institutional and politically connected corruption in his government. Panyaza Lesufi’s pledge to tackle corruption means 0.

@wicks_jeff Ask your neighbours at @TheCitizen_News they tried to hide behind an opinion piece like you and the findings were clear. Watch out. #TryHarder

Explosive: Former Gauteng Health CFO Lerato Madyo got a golden handshake & walked away with a pension, despite serious corruption charges! 😡 Suspended over Tembisa Hospital looting & linked to Babita Deokaran's murder tip-off – yet she got millions in payoff (possibly R1-3m) instead of facing full disciplinary action. This stinks of a cover-up to protect others – Premier's office signed off! People are dying in hospitals while money is looted & politically protected. DA will do everything to make the agreement public & hold the Health MEC & Premier accountable. Corruption must end now!!! #DAatWork #RescueSA #DA_GPL #FixGauteng #VoteDA #TembisaCorruption #BabitaDeokaran #HealthScandal @JackBloomDA YouTube: youtube.com/shorts/fs4Eshg…

DA Clr Carlos da Rocha is a legend. He’s blasting the Mayor about water shortages in Bez Valley and Kensington. He says he’ll be back if they don’t fix it, and won’t move until the Mayor comes down himself.

💰The ANC used R22 million on statues, while the DA spent R22 million upgrading 8 roads from gravel to asphalt. The choice is yours – service delivery or statues? 🤷🏽 🗳️ Register to vote: check.da.org.za

Surgeries halted for OVER A MONTH at Steve Biko Academic Hospital – aircon breakdown leaves patients in agony! 😡 Elderly patients suffer most – one 80-year-old woman with a hip fracture has waited 3+ weeks in severe pain. Theatres too hot (>18°C = high infection risk). Relatives desperate, some patients transferred elsewhere. This is outrageous – old equipment not maintained or replaced due to corruption & incompetence. Dr Jack Bloom MPL: "Lives at stake. DA demands urgent fix & full maintenance overhaul. Health budgets must save lives, not be wasted or stolen." A DA-led Gauteng would deliver competent, honest management – no more failures. Patients deserve better NOW! 💙 #DAatWork #RescueSA #DA_GPL #FixGauteng #VoteDA #HealthCrisis #SteveBikoHospital #PatientSafety @JackBloomDA Read more: open.substack.com/pub/dagpl/p/da…

📣 The DA unveiled a billboard showing how out of touch the ANC Gauteng Premier is with your reality. When taps run dry, Premier Lesufi checks in at a hotel to take a shower. This is not leadership. Gauteng residents deserve better. Register to #VoteDA. Follow the link: check.da.org.za. #FixDryTaps #NoDryTapsGauteng

🙅🏼🛀🏽 No resident can afford to hire hotel rooms to get a shower because your failing government denies them water at home. This billboard sends a strong message – act, or the DA will force you to. Register to #VoteDA, visit check.da.org.za.

🚿 Panyaza Lesufi and the ANC shower in hotels while you don’t have water! A vote for the DA will put water in your taps 24/7. The DA is fighting to put water first in every municipal budget & to protect water funds so they are reinvested into fixing infrastructure. #FixDryTaps

Panyaza Lesufi said the Brixton Water Tower would go live yesterday. Maybe the water is running somewhere between a press conference and a luxury hotel bath - but it’s certainly not running here at the site. #BelieveInJoburg #Zille4Mayor

Dr Jack Bloom MPL's powerful message after 32 years of SOPA listening: "Tell no lies, claim no easy victories" – but Premier Lesufi keeps doing both! 😡 Promises of 18 private hospitals bought? Zero delivered. 10 hospitals "digitalised"? Patients still on paper files & long queues. Johannesburg Forensic Pathology Lab? Delayed again. Cancer patients wait months for CT reports due to radiologist shortages, Stage 1 becomes Stage 3, lives lost. Thato Monsho died waiting for radiation after chemo she rejected Lesufi's apology. Hundreds more suffer & die from corruption & inefficiency. Health MEC recommended suspended HOD Lesiba Malotana – she must go. Gauteng deserves truth & real action, not lies & false victories. A DA government would deliver competent health services. Rest in peace, Thato – your story won't be forgotten. 💔 #DAatWork #RescueSA #DA_GPL #FixGauteng #VoteDA #HealthCrisis #CancerBacklog #TellNoLies @JackBloomDA YouTube: youtu.be/2g0pkdy9oB8

Watch the moment the Gucci Revolutionaries in the EFF are confronted with the realisation that they may actually get what they're voting for. This is the EFF deer stuck in the headlights when Joburg Council was voting councillor's pay increases. (Watch the bottom right of the second half of this video to seem them scurrying to try make a decision between idealogy and their pockets)

This morning I was in Jeppestown with Clr Hilton Masera - we are trying to get Joburg council to fix a broken fence, terrible dumping and a disgusting sewage smell.
