“That's how you're going to set about creating a culture where wrongdoing is not the norm, but rather the exception. I would like to believe that we are a society that is capable of fixing things, that is capable of renewal and capable of greatness. “We see as an instrument to influence and enforce change, a change that society yearns for and a change that should influence better governance and better outcomes.

Wow, such insight!

When the electorate and the media give the supper corrupt and incompetent ruling party a free pass, who will keep them accountable?

Yet they just report on the inept and corrupt MYANC ANCParliament regime's fraud, corruption, wasteful /irregular expenditure with ZERO consequences. SA urgently needs to DrainTheSwamp along with all the ANC regime's institutions.

Pls define

Um, duh. (Ain’t ever going to happen).

Not in SA

She is so right. However there is no justice and discipline to those who continue, covid was proof!! The corruption continues today with the grants being claimed. Until there is zero tolerance with no redeployment. No repayment opportunity. Just jail time, it will continue!!

Coupled with consequence management 👍

CR17 bank statements

Not going to happen any time soon!!

dont need to be an auditor to know this

Bitcoin is something worth talking about, I decided to give it a try when i witnessed how it lifted my friend to his financially . I invested $1500 worth of bitcoin and with the current increase in bitcoin price I got $17,200 just in a week with the help of _Ambreymarcus

It needs justice system with balls. Arrested, prosecute and jail people thats what SA needs.

Politicians do not know or even understand the meaning of the word “accountability”

Start with the President

That’s one must just do her work and stop thinking she knows it all… Her people are clueless and ride on the fact that she’s heading a Supremely Audit Institute… and she can’t be questioned… hai suka…

Ruraltarain South Africans don't make or execute laws, laws and other rubbish is controlled by our useless government ,please be direct and fair

kabelodick Oh we’ve been saying that since 1994......

It will never come

SA needs a culture of accountability, says auditor-generalProfessionals, accountants and auditors serve in the public interest within this accountability ecosystem I saw several people testifying of making so much money with the help of chris_diazzin on Bitcoin trading, and I dicided to give it a try and am glad he helped me and my colleagues to make a lot of profit in 2 weeks time, thank you for your transparency and trust. Accountability in the eyes of government, is a paid holiday. VoetsekANC Start with the 'leaders', gather them all together and make them play survivor. I pay my taxes, don't steal, pay my bills (not e-tolls, its daylight robbery). I think I'm okay and many other South Africans. Thankfully, I sleep well at night. Not sure about those who stole.
