SABC News reports that Eastern Cape Premier Phumulo Masualle is under pressure from NGOs to make public reports on the so-called sex-for-jobs investigation.  

Earlier in 2016, the provincial government set up a committee to investigate sex-for-jobs allegations in the legislature and the local government department.  The investigation was initiated by Nehawu after its members reported the allegations to the union.  It is believed that the committee has concluded its work and the reports are now gathering dust.  The Masimanyane Women Support Centre and Khula Community Development Centre have expressed disappointment at the provincial government for dragging its feet in releasing the reports.  The two NGOs have called on Masualle to lead by example and release the reports.  Individuals fingered in the legislature report have taken the institution to court in a bid to stop it from making the report public.
