NDA Call for Different Ways of Alleviate Poverty
The chairperson of the National Development Agency (NDA), Malose Kekana, has called for different ways to alleviate poverty in the country.
Speaking at the appointment of the new NDA board in Johannesburg, Kekana pointed out that the one thing that the NDA has to do is to tap into those initiatives and leverage the little money that it has in order to reach more people.
Kekana says a lot of money is spent on grants and 80 percent of the budget went to indigent communities, “And we know that they spend it on food." He further says that another approach is to use respected individuals within the communities to lead poverty alleviation programmes.
