Leader of the GOOD Party Patricia De Lille says she’s serious about clearing her name of alleged corruption.

She says summons will be served on senior members of the Democratic Alliance (DA) regarding a forged Auditor General Report. It listed a number of breaches by De Lille while she was mayor of Cape Town related to the MyCiti Bus procurement process.

The report which circulated on social media last year was later confirmed by Auditor General Kimi Makwetu to be fake.

De Lille laid charges against the affected DA members in November last year.

“There are four members of the DA, four members of the Parliament that have forged the signature of the Auditor General and then put my picture there to say that I am corrupt. I have laid charges at the police and I have got the affidavit and everything.”

De Lille adds: “So, I am now going to serve summons on them this week, to sue them each one of half a million rand. So, it’s not even for me about the money, it’s about my name, but I also want to send out a strong message to those who are continuing to say that I am corrupt that I will deal with you.”
