🔸Dear @wicknellchivayo,
1. On what date did your South African company, TTM Global Medical Exports (Pty) Ltd tender for the supply of cancer treatment equipment?
2. Do you have a copy of the call for public tenders?
3. Can you explain why the value of the contract is half a billion US dollars?
4. On what basis was your company awarded the contract given that this company came into existence in November 2024, meaning that it is less than a year old?
5. Why is the physical address of your company a hotel? Is it a briefcase company? Does your company manufacture cancer treatment equipment at Da Vinci Hotel and Suites?
We need new leaders.🇿🇼
