WATCH | Lesufi: Nasi iSpani will continue as planned

JOHANNESBURG - Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi says they are working hard to continue the Nasi iSpani employment programme.

Lesufi has admitted the programme has experienced financial challenges, causing delays in the payment of stipends to its beneficiaries.

But the DA is not holding back in its opposition. It's asked the Public Protector's office to investigate whether Nasi iSpani was an election campaigning tool, and if there have been any financial irregularities.

eNCA reporter Pule Letshwiti-Jones has more details in the video above.
