EThekwini councillors have called for a council engagement to discuss the future of the City Fleet unit amid concerns that it is not maintaining the municipal vehicles in an efficient manner.
This was revealed by the Municipal Public Accounts Committee chair (MPAC) Thami Xuma. He said that after his oversight visit to the asphalt and tar plant, he had escalated the matter to the eThekwini City Integrity and Investigations Unit (CIIU) and asked it to begin a probe into allegations of collusion.
Addressing councillors, eThekwini Municipality mayor Mxolisi Kaunda said eThekwini did not owe money to Eskom and Umgeni for the services that they provided, and those who said eThekwini was unstable were wrong.
