## Resource

President Ramaphosa has ordered a full SIU probe into three Free State school projects plagued by decade-long delays — Caleb Motshabi, Tlholo, and Malebogo Primary — uncovering potential corruption, mismanagement, and financial losses dating back to 2014. The SIU will scrutinize procurement processes, investigate unlawful conduct, and pursue civil recovery of state funds, aiming to hold accountable anyone responsible for the failures that have left communities waiting for essential education infrastructure.
