THE City of Tlokwe is set to host a provincial anti–fraud and corruption conference, integrated development programme (IDP) and the service delivery outreach programme. The IDP programme meeting is expected to be a ground-breaking amid failed court application to halt the amalgamation of Tlokwe and Ventersdorp municipalities. Municipality spokesperson, William Maphosa said they will engage with communities to explaining the amalgamation.

“In commemoration of the International Fraud Awareness Week, the city will host an Anti – Fraud and Corruption Summit next week together with the district. We want to promote anti-fraud and corruption awareness and education. However the programme is spearheaded by the Provincial Anti-Corruption Forum (PACF) in the Office of the Premier.

“During fraud week government agencies and businesses are expected to engage in various activities. The hosting of fraudawareness training for employees will help in assessing fraud knowledge and risk factors within organisations. We will do post anti-corruption articles on social media and also in newsletters. We also planning to team up with local media tohighlight the problem of fraud,” Maphosa said.
