Limpopo Premier Phophi Ramathuba heads back to check on the Morebeng-to-Sekgosese road mess for the third time after eight years of contractors flaking and cash vanishing into thin air. The 32-kilometer stretch was supposed to connect eight villages with proper tar and flood bridges by 2022, but the first crew took 400 million rand and ghosted the site back in 2019 without finishing anything.

A fresh contractor called Mathothoka Trading grabbed the gig with an extra 107.5 million rand attached and promised to wrap everything by year-end while hiring locals for 5 percent of the work. Investigators are sniffing around a sketchy 20-million retention payment that got dropped on the original contractor before completion, and enforcement agencies are building cases against whoever pulled that stunt.

Residents dealt with garbage roads for over four decades, and taxi drivers say the dusty nightmare scares passengers away while wrecking vehicles constantly.
