NORTH West Public Works MEC, Madoda Sambata met with contractors to try and solicit common grounds after they downed tools. The contractors were hired to build roads across the Dr Ruth Segomotsi Mompati district, but left the roads unfinished because of unpaid money.

Departmental spokesperson, George Madoda said the department met with all contractors and they are in a process of paying them the money they owed.

“MEC Madoda Sambatha met with three contractors on Friday. There is Leviro contract firm that is building a road between Morokweng and Bona Bona, and another one building a road between Morokweng and Tseage. We agreed that we will make sure all contractors will be paid before the end of this week and the process of continue building roads will resume,” Madoda said.

Madoda said Sambatha also met with Taung residents and explained that the department will meet with the contractor soon because there are still outstanding matter involved in the case after the contractor took department to court.
