Garankuwa residents, north of Pretoria, say the construction and refurbishment of a multi-million-rand shopping mall in the township seems far from complete.
The project was initiated by the Public Investment Corporation on behalf of the Government Employees Pension Fund in 2019.
Residents say the project has stalled due to challenges with the previous contractor and the construction mafia who have demanded a share of the project.
According to research, about 183 infrastructure and construction projects worth over R60 billion have been affected by the construction mafia in the country.
Residents have called on government to intervene.
