JOHANNESBURG, (CAJ News) – THE Gauteng Department of Education has denied allegations it ‘rigged’ the tender process on the Information and Communications Technology programme.

Gauteng Department of Education’s Acting Spokesperson, Oupa Bodibe, says they note the allegations by Democratic Alliance with concern.

“We are further concerned about the DA’s tactic of raising issues in the media and claiming to ask the MEC questions later. We view this as deliberate attempt to cast aspersions and taint the image of the department,” said Bodibe.

“We assure the people of Gauteng that the tender process for the ICT programme is above board and we have obtained value for money from the suppliers. We will await the DA’s questions to the MEC as they claim in their statement.”
